Galante was too reminiscent of Joe Bonanno. But on steroids. I think this was a contributing factor. He had too many of the same characteristics but being more deadly. And whether people believe it or, Joe could've easily played a "Michael Corleone" role from Tuscon with Galante being a "Frank Pentangeli" type. That was a no-no.

I do believe that was Bonannos original plan in the late 50s but Galante got pinched
