As someone who loathed HoxPox and how treated he Cyclops, I wouldn't be feeling any different towards him had he actually gotten the chance to write...
And Jed mackay seems like someone who not only loves Cyke but also respects the established lore, he's a better version of DC's Joshua Williamson imo...
Scott is a silver age character though. Johns would have definitely made him a lot more powerful and competent. And he can actually write characters....
