I feel like they avoided recasting because they wanted these guys available an emergency backup plan they could invoke if shit went sideways, which is kind of what happened. "Oh, you don't like phase 5? Well, Robert and Chris are back so everyone's happy now, right?"

Them trying to bridge the gap between the Avengers and X-Men with Spider-Man and a bunch of C-listers was just such a bad idea. I understand wanting to keep the gravy train going but the gravy train didn't consist of She-Hulk, Ms. Marvel, Bucky and his no-name pals or Ironheart. If all the OGs were out then the ride was over so they should have admitted it was over and just waited to relaunch the whole thing with the FF move followed quickly by the X-Men. Then by the time you needed to introduce new Cap and New Iron Man it would have been long enough not to feel too weird seeing other people playing those characters.

Now the lines are all blurred. Can't introduce a new Iron Man or Cap when Downey and Evans are still in the mix and if they recast them right after Doomsday that's going to be too soon for anyone's liking and seem like a panic move.
