Peter was motivated to stop Vulture, sure, but having Vulture's origins be about a hero besides the main character is narratively bizarre to me. Either have the villain be connected to the hero or motivated by something else entirely. Motivated by /another unrelated hero/ makes him THAT hero's villain.

"If need be, without Tony" shouldn't be a metric for a standalone hero. Why should be have to be Tony's sidekick and prove that he can stand without Tony's help when Spiderman as a hero has ALWAYS stood on his own?

All of those emotional beats were secondary when the emotional low-point of the movie was Tony being mad at him.

The exact ownership of the jet is a technicality. It was Stark tech, Tony's #1 man Happy was in charge of it, it was still Tony's business.

I didn't say anything about a pivotal scene. I LOVED that scene with Peter because for ONCE in the movie Tony wasn't involved and we finally saw Spiderman as Spiderman.

Yeah, thank god Peter turned him down in the final scene (not to mention offering an official superhero job to a minor under the Accords without the minor's guardian being in on it is WEIRD), but he still got the suit from Tony and Tony was "right all along" about Peter's potential. Because we as viewers knew the whole time that Peter would be fine without Tony's involvement, it was jarring to me to see Tony's approval mattering at all.

Obviously it's still Peter's movie, but taking Tony out of it would take away most if not all of the narrative supports, versus all of the people who matter ONLY to Peter as a character are barely involved in the actual plot.
