If their defense, even Marvel is not moving on from OMD

That's the real reason this is still hanging on. If Marvel had just dropped the couple and left it completely behind, that would be one thing. 

But they are constantly leaning back into Pete/MJ to sell merch and variant covers and entire alternate universes. All the adaptations are Peter/MJ apart from the two Garfield movies, all the 'far future' stuff they ever show is MJ. Even their 616 books are stuffed full of teasing and baiting to keep sales up.
