Yes! ...in theory if you paired Sanderson up with a drift-compatible CHARACTER writer I bet the results would be sensational, but also, he is at SWIMMING POOLS OF MONEY doing what he does and he has legions of devoted fans so honestly it's not like he would need/want (?) to! :)
For my money Wheel of Time had better-differentiated characters and that was part of its appeal, although some of it was Of Its Time; I have been really pleased with how the TV adaptation made the material more inclusive generally (at least one f/f couple on-screen that I recall, major characters cast as Not White, etc.) while capturing the appeal of the canon, at least in S1.
