Perhaps so, except that, if I'm doing so, then so is the current Marvel regime, because they've flatly insisted that Peter should never win no matter what he does. That's not Peter Parker; that's Al Bundy.
Blame Stan Lee or Jim Shooter. They're the ones who mandated his angst.
Except that they still allowed him significant joys and victories in the midst of his struggles. Current Marvel dictates that no aspect of his life should ever be successful or pleasant.
