If that's the case, and I admit that I'm speculating, that seems to suggest that something more, something worse about Cyke's history is yet to be revealed that he will then require redemption for. You can probably imagine how that sort of approach will go over. Again, if that's the case, it's easy to see how Cyke fans could justifiably be at wits end over this seemingly endless vilification of him. In my opinion, Scott's at his best when he's his own hardest judge, not the rest of the team. The cynical among us may suspect that this is in fact being done to justify (or further justify depending on your opinion) the narrative that Marvel creators have spun about him for the better part of a decade.
I sincerely hope this isn't the case and that your concern is about showing your hand on what exactly in Cyke's history this redemption will focus on.
On the plus side, at least we know he's getting some attention in upcoming stories. That's something anyway.
