I mean, I don't see many reasons against it, it just seems odd since the aunt and uncle thing is such an ingrained part of the character. Doesn't really change too much here, just caught me off-guard.

I do think you can have Peter's parents be dead without making them super-spies, which is what most incarnations do. Really it was just the TASM films and that one awkward period in the 90s when they chose to focus on his parents, and I agree that it never really works.
