The point I was making was not actually about the writers. I hope the change in writer at this late date (much like with Ant Man) is not indicative of some kind of growing creative rift between Disney and Edwards, similar to what led to Edgar Wright leaving.
Writers change all the time. What concerns me is someone coming in this late to do another pass (since I doubt he's doing a complete rewrite). Hopefully it's nothing.
