That's true. But the other thing is that they seem to be edging him out of all his potential storylines. They're replacing him in the Lucas/Chloe/Philip triangle with Brady. Philip isn't even mad at Lucas, which is amazing considering that Phloe hadn't actually broken up before the elevator scenes. Lumi getting closer should end the Allie custody battle. And if they were going to reunite them, you'd think they'd leave at least the possibilty that Lucas is the father of Sami's child. It wouldn't be the first time a baby was conceived off screen. Instead, they're slamming the door closed by having him be at the hospital.
