Whatever happens, someone down the line will eventually want to approach on an angle that makes Scott sound like the most abusive husband ever and, as seen in this very thread, for some people it tarnishes the character forever.
Scott was completely viable then because Jean wasn't around, so there was no reason to hammer on the fact that he cheated on her. You put them together, there's plenty of room and opportunity to do that. It's one thing to have it happen and move on, another have it happen, insist on it and use it as way to portray Scott in the most negative way available, which will happen if/when they are put together. It's just the way Marvel works.
