Loeb isn't behind that kind of thing. He's different to Feige (and Feige isn't really behind that kind of thing either), in that what he shepherds is more disparate - a chunk is Netflix, a chunk (now just one show) is ABC, Cloak & Dagger is kind of its own thing, Runaways is kind of its own thing, he's got the new Spirits of Vengeance chunk apparently happening, plus he works on non-MCU stuff like Legion and The Gifted - and also that he isn't governing the Marvel Cinematic Universe in the way Feige is. The combination of these things means Feige is overseeing one large franchise and its convergences and overlaps and where everything is at at any given point and is the one setting the Marvel Cinematic Universe out. Loeb is overseeing mini-franchises (and several of them) within a larger franchise more than Feige is because it's not like the TV stuff is all headed in one direction and is beholden to Feige's laws essentially.

I do have a problem with his sometimes feeble excuses and the way he phrased the Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. thing, but he's in a difficult position.
