Having a new edition of Wedding Collection while currently they're broken up with Spidey being a douche is some weird irony lol.
Either way, they only respect it in the sense that having the possibility of Spidey and MJ getting together brings attention, but breaking them up again also brings attention, and Marvel is still doing the Brevort method of "pissing off fans increases sales", which, they're right to an extent, but they fail to realize this is not good on long term.
Now hey, if you wanna have faith, that's fine, I just roll my eyes whenever Spider-Marriage fans talk like "they will get back together, permanently, any moment now!", which, the last 14 years haven't done anything to prove 'em right (Spencer's run did at least have 'em back together with good chemistry the few times they interacted, but uh, now we have Wells' run...), and while you can point out that Quesada is gone now, I doubt he had any real power for the last years before he left, and he wasn't the only one opposed to the marriage anyways, now, maybe stuff can change now that he's gone, and if we're lucky he did have some power left and he used the last of it for the current Wells ASM run, and if we're really lucky then Spidey will stop being bad angst porn, I'm just not holding my breath on that.
