Everything I've learned lately about the behind-the-scenes creative process for Rider shows suggests the Chief Producers have a ton of influence on that sort of thing, and both Ghost and Saber seem to intentionally pass the scripts around between their three writers a lot more evenly than most recent Rider shows do.

I mean, it's literally the exact same producer and writers, so any overall point you want to make about the structural issues both shows have can still apply; it's just that it's probably important to note that it's unlikely every decision someone might have a problem with was all made by the one guy.

Looked around and, out of the 23 episodes, Fukuda has only written 8 of them. I'm pretty sure he also supervises the other writers and is more focused on writing the lore, much like that one lore drop episode about Saikou and Kurayami.

I think Fukuda's improved a bit. He's more willing to hand key plot elements to other writers, instead of disappearing along with the material, leaving the other writers little to work with.
