Not Quite Cool
May. 27, 2025, morning

I think that this misunderstands storytelling somewhat. It's not about the end goal, it's about the journey. Otherwise we can say there's no point in Spider-Man fighting villains at this point in his history, because we know he's going to win.

That he is with Shay (for example), and learning stuff from her, and experiencing the world with her, is the point. Who he ends up with is immaterial.
