Sentence correctness

Hi

Please tell me if this sentence is grammatical.

Wordsworth was one of the first European poets to consider the lowliest members of society as valid subjects for poetry.

I think this is grammatical. But, the answer is without the underlined "as".

The patterns "consider X Y" and "consider X as Y" are both used, with the same meaning. The former seems more polished.
