Having Hickman writing the whole story would guarantee its consistency.
On the other hand, fewer characters would have space in these stories.
I think it's a fair trade, I'm on quality rather than quantity.

He's already done over 3 books worth of writing.
X-Men is ongoing
plus
New Mutants (4 issues)
Giant Size X-Men (5 issues)
Empyre (I think he's writing all 5 issues)
X of Swords (like 4 issues)
Despite a lot of the above not even being out yet, he's already had 26 Dawn of X issues published in 8 months, (that averages to just over 3 x-books a month). Having a second ongoing on top of what he's doing would just be silly. Not to mention he's whatever the comic equivalent is to a showrunner. He's guiding DOX and reading over every other book in the line before they're published.
Frankly, I'm surprised he's not already burnt out.

Nah he's better off the way he is now personally I find X-Men to be really hit or miss on occasion.
