The market craves a superhero of color in an important role, and that would basically have been built in; plus there would be less people complaining about the idea that Carol isn't Mar-Vell, since Monica never was tied to the concept. It'd make the whole idea of Captain Marvel being the MCU's strongest hero more believable too, since Carol is only really there at Binary levels, and still, not even then.
The problem then comes from the fact that there would no need to make Kamala Khan if Carol Danvers is still Ms Marvel, unless perhaps under a different codename? Marvel Girl was technically open at the time that Kamala came about, since the teenage Jean Grey had decided by then just to go by her given name.
