One of the biggest mistakes in my opinion. They sent him off and closed the chapter so well that it was fitting. To rip him back because they're struggling to make anything half as decent is a cop out and tarnishes the franchise.

I understand comicbook characters die and come back all the time but the multi generational audience that was apart of that experience can never watch end game again as that emotional good bye to the last decade is now gone.

It is most likely damage control because the Kang thing was derailed due to Kang's actor being an abuser. RDJ is now a known and reliable actor for the MCU who is able to play a character like Doom and will most likely never show his actual face on acreen. It would be like Josh Brolin reprising Cable in Deadpool now that it is part of the MCU even though he was already Thanos.

As long as Doom's voice is modulated enough that it doesn't sound like Iron Man it should work out fine.
