While there's probably some element of truth to that, I don't really fault him. He didn't say that Gunn has to direct - only that his script has to be used.
More than any of the other franchises, GOTG is Gunn's baby. Thor, Iron Man, and Captain America were pretty well known before the movies, but GOTG was a pretty niche comic that he brought out of obscurity and made into one of the best of the MCU. If you think about everything that made GOTG great, it all comes back to Gunn. Story? James Gunn. Music selection? James Gunn. Directing (and therefore overall tone and sense of humor)? James Gunn.
I could see GOTG3 working if they 1) keep Gunn's script (hopefully with his music selections already scripted) and 2) have Taika Waititi direct it (who has a similar sense of humor). If either of those aren't happening, they might as well just scrap it.
