There was a Year of the Villain Lex Luthor one shot that deals with this idea. I think the plan is to have the clone take over. But that doesn't need to happen for a year or so.
So as far as giving Lex a break? I think its a good idea. There are some Superman villains that haven't gotten much story, Parasite comes to mind. I wouldn't mind seeing the Machinist from the New 52 show up again. There hasn't been a Metallo story in a while, or a Myx story. There are a ton villains that appeared in the nineties that had potential, but not a lot was done with them. Just a lot of directions to go.
I am committed to the idea that any work of art should be judged on its own merit, not on the behavior or beliefs of its author.
I don't like what Snyder has been doing with Lex (or what Synder has been doing in general since the end of his New 52 Batman run) so I say yes. Stop using him for a year or two and then bringing him back in a big way would be the best thing for Lex IMO.
