The Dallas version of Hitchens had more than enough athleticism to play MLB. And he has a little more size/strength then Lee. He's simply a better combination of attributes at the Mike and Lee's premier athleticism fits better at the Will.
The alternative is a slightly smaller Mike and a slightly less athletic Will. I think you've cranked the nob the exact wrong direction in making those calls.

Possibly. If they're gonna be in the nickel and dime sets more often anyway, i'm not sure it would matter as much.
I'm not excited about seeing Hitchens in the middle flailing around again though.
