I absolutely, totally, completely agree! In addition to what you said, Spider Man never ASKED to join the Avengers! I grew up reading the comic books in the 1960's and '70's, and, if IIRC, it was the Avengers who ASKED Spider Man to join THEM!
He always said, "No thanks, fellas. I'm a LONER!" (And that was BECAUSE he was a kid, but behind the mask, he was Spider Man!) I can't believe how badly Disney would eff up Marvel's flagship superhero. Peter Parker's powers are organic, they're in his DNA; while Tony Stark's "powers" are nothing but tech. Spider Man--though he be just an 18 year-old kid and/or college student, could whoop Iron Man, no problem!
Like tech could beat Spider Man? Bullet, rocket, 'death ray', whatever, Spider Man's too quick to be hit by any of those weapons and others! Not only that, my friend, but in 'Homecoming', effing Tony Stark's supplied AI computer tells Spider Man that if he falls from the Washington Monument, he'll most likely die, as it's "550 feet to the ground" or whatever. Well BS! Spider Man could fall a thousand feet, onto concrete, and just be knocked unconscious for 10 or 20 minutes! (He'd still wake up with a sore head or whatever, but he's okay.)
Perhaps it's time for another movie, where the Avengers try to challenge Spider Man. And Spidey blows them away (um, without actually killing or seriously harming any of them), the fools! :)
