He had limited screen time - no way to do that with such a huge ensemble cast and a plot already so grandiose. Can't fault him or knock anyone else- it's just a byproduct of this film's story and cast and fitting it into a movie run time that's reasonable.

What I am against is studios pressuring directors to cut down on their film length simply so they can squeeze another showing each day - of course that's what they want and in turn get to hype extended cuts when released on br & dvd.
