We think alike on this, generally.
I especially take issue if the origin circumstances are of the "One in a million" variety, as with Spider-Man and Hulk. Once it's been established that "Anyone but this ONE guy would have died from this scenario", it feels cheap to repeat it.
Like, I love all the Flashes, but they really push the limit of this. To be fair, Jay and Barry had totally different accidents, and some versions of the tale have Barry subconsciously recreating his own accident with Wally, "Accidentally on purpose" so that he'd have a sidekick, and even that is pushing it.
I'm aware that Peter and Miles were created for separate universes, but they also often share one, and I think it dilutes the concept of Spider-Man. The whole point of this project seems to be, "We can have MANY Spider-People", and I'm simply not interested in that.
