You're presuming that Wheeler would have behaved exactly the way he has without the criticism that was leveled at his appointment. I'm not sure that is accurate.

I do not at all regret my assumptions about Wheeler or my criticism of his appointment. He has been much better for consumers than expected, but he has hardly been perfect. There is still no real competition in the US for broadband. Broadband innovation has been basically nil for most US consumers. Broadband and wireless pricing are both at gouging levels for most US consumers as well.

So while, yes, he has done some good things for consumers, it has largely been in the form of protecting the status quo rather than pushing the needle.
