        It's under his robe. He's clearly here on a chill day and didn't expect any of this bullshit.
        >or call himself Spider-Man
        Why? No one's challenging him on it and he doesn't need to introduce himself to anyone or the audience.
        >or want to save everyone without needing Miles to educate him on being Spider-Man,
        He DOES want to save eveyone. Every single spider-man in spider society does. Along with them already seeing and knowing multiple worlds have been destroyed due to the breaking of these canon events, they've already actually lived through their tragedies by this point and know for a fact with the information they have, their experiences, and seeing the fate of other spider-people who shared similar experience that doing both is simply impossible. Miles hasn't been through or experienced all that yet so he hasn't accepted it yet. It's telling that Peter's words are the only ones that make him consider not running away and fighting this and it's lyla's chiming in that makes him run away again.
        >want to have kids with MJ without needing Miles to inspire him
        This peter was at the end of his rope and exhausted after dealing with loss after loss after 22 years of bullshit. His time with Miles just opened him up again and Peter successfully helping guide the kid and helping him grow meant a lot to Peter at a low point in his life who felt he kept screwing things up.
        >or not endanger his daughter or not lie to MJ
        He didn't endanger her. He was in a building full of spider-people and he can clearly handle his child. Not like he can just leave her at home since she can easily escape MJ.
        >or not act like a moron
        He's using humor to try and diffuse the situation since he understands how Miles feels but knows firsthand that wanting to have both isn't going to work out.
        My only gripe is him not standing up to Miguel or Jessica for Gwen. That actually pissed me off.

            You act like any of them these people to die and simply went 'hey human sacrifice is cool actually' and not just them having witnessed worlds and trillions of lives dying due to (to their knowledge) canon events being broken. There's only so far you can keep saying 'I want to save everyone' when it costs trillions of lives over and over again before you inevitably have to accept it you can't save everyone. Miles is a dumb, emotional kid and hasn't been through any of what they all have. All he got was a presentation which is vastly different from actually being there and watching countless lives die and slip between through your fingers multiple times.
            >Do soldiers bring their daughters to army barracks
            It's not like there's anyone actively attacking Spider-Society and there's literally thousands of spider-people around who will die to keep mayday safe so it's not like he has any reason to worry. Not like he can leave her with MJ either so her being with him is the best option. I will give you that him taking her with him in the end of the movie moronic though since he is actually heading into what he knows is a potentially dangerous situation. But him just chilling at HQ with her isn't anything to get mad at.

          No he doesn't, Miles is the only one, Peter literally tells him he'd let uncle Ben die, I wonder what he would've said if Miles used Mayday dying as the hypothetical
          >This peter was at the end of his rope and exhausted after dealing with loss after loss after 22 years of bullshit.
          Out of character for Peter, he always wanted kids even at his lowest
          >He didn't endanger her. He was in a building full of spider-people and he can clearly handle his child. Not like he can just leave her at home since she can easily escape MJ.
          MJ literally asks him if he brought Mayday to a fight *again* meaning he knowingly brought her to fights before, and he takes her to a literal fight at the end
          >He's using humor to try and diffuse the situation since he understands how Miles feels but knows firsthand that wanting to have both isn't going to work out.
          He would've tried the same thing Miles did if he was written faithfully and in good faith, he knew Miles dad was going to die for almost a year and just though "oh well lol", he thought letting Miles hold Mayday would somehow make him okay with his dad dying and Peter not telling him about it

        It’s not like they’re mutually exclusive. Miles also being Spider-Man at one point the better part of a century ago doesn’t really step on the toes of 2099 where it’s all “Oh yeah, the heroic age, that was a thing that happened. Anyway.”

          It isn’t mutually exclusive when the writers and directors admitted the “canon” concept was because they were but hurt that more people didn’t like Miles. Then it makes total sense.

      Because if he had agency, he'd have completely changed the story, and potentially eclipsed Miles - again. When Peter Parker is a major and active character, he does more than just give a pep talk. He uses his head. He'd have been able to either catch Miles or get him to escape. And the Spider-Verse chase scene was complicated enough without Peter changing the setup - especially if this story had as many rewrites as we've heard

      is probably also right, for a more cyncial reason.

      Honestly, I'm just thankful they let him be happy and a father. That's more life progression than most Spider-Man stories allow him to have.

    Literally because the sequel entirely hinged on almost every non-Miles Spider being either ineffectual or borderline sociopathic. Peter B wasn’t allowed to actually do anything worthwhile this time around, just come off as a doofus and putting his daughter in danger.

For the last 10 years people have been rolling their eyes at Sony trying to to a Spider-man universe with Aunt May as a spy in the 60's, The Sinister Six, Black Cat, Silver Sable, Fricking Mobius. What do you think that is? It's an Anthology. The first movie was critically and commercially successful, with is rare for Sony. Of course the sequel is gonna feature Miles heavily. The problems you have with "Miles" are really problems with script or with Miles as a concept which usually boils down to not my Spider-man.
