The issue was: would he be disadvantaged due to everyone else being mid-season form?

The answer is: either he too is in mid-season form, or he is going to be off the charts when he is.
It doesn't necessarily have to be so back and white. A player can be disadvantaged in terms of timing/systems/chemistry, but can also still have a huge advantage in terms of energy and health. Bennett might still have room for growth in terms of adjusting his play, AND still be ahead-of everyone on the energy meter.
