Oda is too big of a deal in the industry at this point. Maybe it's hard to find people who do NOT put him on a pedestal.
Editors that swap for previous ones for long time mangakas are often proposed by Shueisha and they meet. I think that's enough answer for you how corrupted this shit might be.

It is possible Shueisha prepare editors and tell them how to work around the mangakas to keep them going.
