Dan Aykroyd had (has?) been throwing about this idea of the Ghostbusters back when they were in high school. I guess if it were just Stantz and Spengler, it'd be **kinda** plausible without being a completely different movie, just a regular comedy without any sfx spectacling... etc...I really got the impression that Stantz and Spengler had no first hand knowledge of ghosts .... I suppose that mayve been just an assumption that could be broken rather painlessly. They can't put all 3 of the guys in there, because Venkman was obviously a skeptic and genuinely thought that the other guys were full of it. If it were all 3, what would the story be??? Three guys goofing around? I guess it's possible Venkman could be in the movie but completely absent from any of the moments of supernatural phenomena. Like "I swear to you, he was **just** here!" "Suuure...I believe you. No, I really do..". Idk. I guess it could work...I have to wonder if Aykroyd has actually written a script that demonstrates this concept as being workable.
