Is putting Spider-Man in the MCU necessary?

In my opinion the only other Marvel superheroes Spider-Man works really well with are Daredevil and the Fantastic Four and even then recurringly so I'm not enthused that the MCU does seem to be and may increasingly be crossover-centric. Tony Stark especially seems like a character Spider-Man wouldn't necessarily like or get a lot of mentoring from.

The OP makes valid points about Spidey being primarily a solo hero. Some people here are being way too childish and harsh with their comments.
Now personally I can roll with the MCU Spidey and his having a mentor in Tony Stark, but I totally understand what the OP is saying.
It is a bit of hypocrisy from fanboys who want everything "comic accurate!", i.e. Spidey has to always make mile a minute jokes "just like in the comics", Spidey must have mechanical webshooters "just like in the comics".
But when they change things up and do some alternate or ultimate version of Spidey that is NOT accurate to the original Steve Ditko/Stan Lee versions, like a significantly younger Aunt May and a mentor figure in Tony Stark/Iron Manthen these same fanboys have no issue with it. -

It isn't necessary but it it at least puts an end to some of the bitching and speculation as to of if Spider-Man is going to be apart of the official MCU.
When there's no more room in Hollywood, remakes shall walk the Earth.
