You could make that argument, but I dont buy it.

I think the real official reason is because Kojima wanted an actor, not just a voice actor, for motion capture.

Also Kojima secretly just wants to be a movie director.

Guess you are right.

Saw in another thread that snake is in the game and wasn't voiced by hader so the whole argument falls apart.
