Recasting one actor for a character that race isn’t an important characteristic isn’t white washing.
The problem with Into Darkness is how bad the writing and acting are. They took one of the most popular Star Trek movies and remade it badly.

Just rewatched Into Darkness. It still holds up, if the whitewashing doesn’t bother you.

To be fair, I wouldn’t exactly call original Khan good representation either, in the sense that he draws on some negative ethnic stereotypes.
Still a fun villain, though.
