Both Ant Man and Wasp should be on the team. They were original Avengers, man! Yes I know it was the Hank Pym and Janet Van Dyne versions, but still.

Every day is a gift, not a given right.
They should count that is how Spiderman is on his last film for Marvel with nearly his last film with far from Home. Spiderman has been in Civil War, Homecoming,Infinity War, Endgame, Far Home unless Spiderman deal is constructed differently. It would be interesting to know if it is films or appearances in the contract. It could be 3 feature films and 3 appearances.
Sony had a plan for 4 solo movies, I thought? A movie for each year in high school? And then he gets shared the same amount?
EDIT: I did some sleuthing and it was a 5 picture deal in total. 4 co-staring and 4 solo was the OG plan but it was shortened by Sony to 5 total. Now Sony wants to extend the deal. The only confirmed appearences by Sony/Marvel are Civil War, Homecoming, Infinity War, & Far From Home. Endgame is not confirmed at this time. But he's in the new posters ... so probably.

Black Panther,Strange, and Captain marvel are franchises all on they're own too. 2 of them made more money then spidey by alot. But I dont think that matters, think the fact that Sony could decide to not renew the deal and take Spiserman away at some point is more of a deterrent.
The difference is that Spider-man is actually competing with those other movies for box office, depending on release dates. Sony will have to consider Spider-man's release schedule relative to Disney's Marvel release schedule as well, and perhaps choose less optimal release dates. Depending on how negotiations progress, that could also be a factor either way on whether Sony goes forward with the MCU or not.
Personally, I think if Spider-man and Sony's spider-verse proves it can succeed without the MCU (as I think is already being shown) I don't see Sony's motivation to keep working with Disney being stronger than keeping their distance.
