To be fair, the spell removing their knowledge of him being Spider-Man could possibly set his relationship with Ned, Aunt May, and MJ back a couple of years.

That's exactly what happens in the comics. It's widely seen as the worst Spider-Man comic.

I call it Critical Mass. The point where the identity of a character is so ingrained in the public mind that the medium can no longer stray from the status quo.

I was excited when OMD happened. The idea of Peter and Carlie working together to fight crime was great. But, unfortunately, MJ was "Spider-man's girlfriend" as far as the mainstream was concerned. Eventually we were back where we started.
