The special ability "Negate" only targets special abilities. It does not negate the numbers on a card.

This is a change, as previously if an enhancement was negated both the special ability and numbers had no effect.

Does this effectively mean "negate an evil card" and "negate the special ability of an evil card" are the same exact ability?

Correct. Similar to "Negate Heroes" = "Negate the special abilities on Heroes" (such as on Tower of Thebez) and "Negate Characters"="Negate the special abilities of characters".
