That and he wasn't as detached from reality. That didn't start to get really bad until after the BOB and the US joining the war. Probably really noticeably by late 1942-early 1943. As others have stated here. Goering, I mean.

Rommel was good, I'm not sure how he'd have handeled the LW, he'd have a lot on his plate...

But are the tactics of running an Air Force the same as an Army? I'm sure he could've handled Hitler....."Don't retreat!" "F You!"

But are they the same in terms of planning?

There would be the other reason for being uncertain of how he'd do...
