YMMV and all, but I consider the fact that he's otherwise an 'ordinary' guy(as far as superheros movies go) but still throws himself into the fray along-side all these super-powered individuals to be an example of why he's a good fit for the shield.

Yeah, he's not got Cap's powers, but he absolutely has the same kind of determination to do the right thing and bravery that Steve has, that more than makes him an acceptable replacement in my eyes. But hey we can agree to disagree and all.

And tbh from a in-universe perspective he's gonna have plot-armor like the rest of the non-durable heroes do in these movies.

ITA that his personal character is well suited to being Cap. I just think it's silly that a regular human is supposed to replace a superhuman in a superhuman role when his physical abilities can't remotely equal a superhuman's abilities. It doesn't matter how strong his heart and his spirit and his bravery are: he's still physically a human with human limitations. The writers' utter detachment from the practical realities of what the job entails and what the physical limitations of humans are makes me roll my eyes and go "oh marvel."

But! I freely acknowledge that this is an ongoing issue with superhero stories almost across the board. Sam becoming Cap isnt the first or even the fiftieth time the mcu has treated strength and vulnerability like traits that can be wildly adjusted at will, or outright ignored.
