As mentioned earlier, the only issue with this casting choice is that you would also need a new voice actor for Ken, & Matthew Mercer is already Fei Long. So if they use Mercer as their Reuben replacement, they’d either need to recast Fei Long (ideally to someone more ethnically accurate) or change Mercer’s execution of the role.
I don't see why Ken and Dante need to be married to the same actor.
True, that would be another solution. But Capcom have made a number of references between Dante & Ken to the other due to their shared English voice actor (Dante has Shinryuken for Balrog, Ken has a Dante costume in SFV).

Yeah, that’s how this thrives, when none of their peers speak up.
A shame that they’re remaining silent. You would think that at least Troy Baker & Nolan North would speak up.
He just doesn’t get it.
He just doesn’t get it.
He just doesn’t get it.
My thoughts exactly. That plus him being a general piece of shit with a fragile ego.
Edit: Totally misinterpreting the quote but even so, this shitbird has made it abundantly clear that he is not worth supporting. Recast his punk ass, Capcom.
First of all, that screenshot is damning as hell.
Unfortunately, Reuben is already in Smash via Ken. That said, the hope is that Reuben doesn't get more work via Smash (or any other game, for that matter).

What a fucking asshole.Reuben Langdon (Dante of DMC) blames sexual harassment victims; thinks MeToo and BLM"goes too far" UPDATE: Regrets nothing; Capcom never investigated
Reuben Langdon, who is the voice and mo-cap actor behind Dante in the Devil May Cry series since Devil May Cry 3, was recently interviewed on YouTube and during said interview an extended discussion about the recent events of his fellow voice actor Vic Mignogna having various sexual harassment...
To be fair, I can understand why Sakurai went for Ken from the standpoint that he was an easy echo. It just sucks that he's voice by a piece of shit in English. And unlike Street Fighter, I can't individually set Ken to Japanese without changing literally everything else. If Ken required the same workload as Chun-Li, he probably would have gone for the latter.
They see that legitimately oppressed people gain sympathy and decide to make the same claims to obtain the same sympathy. Not everyone says words because they are trying to convey a thought; some people string words together to cause an favourable effect whether or not the statements are meaningful.
As was stated earlier, they basically just want sympathy when they don’t deserve it. They aren’t the voices of the oven heard, they’re sore losers who can’t take an L & move on.
He’s basically hiding what are clearly his true belief behind “both sides” rhetoric. And the worst part is that Reuben knows that no one will do anything about it because he has such a hold on the gaming industry, Capcom especially.
