Bottom line is, Affleck has no business interfering with the creative process. He's not being hired as the director or producer. So, your wishful thinking based rationale (and the Chris Evans comparison) is just an overreaching extrapolation to further your belief that Ben is a good cast choice.

You're positive? Great. Allow me to be wallow on the "wait and see, though there were plenty of other safer choices" pool.
