** What makes Miguel's speech worse is that it's heavily implied to be PsychologicalProjection. He lost a family ''and an entire universe'' because he broke the rules of spacetime, and it's clear that he's still harboring a metric ton of guilt over it, and he spills all of it on Miles in this moment. He even calls Miles the "original anomaly," all but confirming that he's actually referring to his younger self.
*** Even worse, his words are harshly reminiscent of fans who constantly try to deny that Miles is Spider-Man (when in reality, they're just being racist).



** Even Miguel's small bit of hesitance and attempt to reaffirm their commitment to be "the good guys" hints that even ''he'' doesn't quite believe it anymore himself with how much being a WellIntentionedExtremist has cost his soul and what Gwen said cut ''deep'' just as much as the other Spiders were rendered silent and doubting... but he and the others [[IveComeTooFar have gone too far]] to just stop doing what they are doing now they know about the multiverse and need to stick it through anyway.

** On top of that, he is directing it at Gwen alone. He didn't simply say 'Goodbye' to include Peter B. No, he was saying this directly to Gwen, showing that out of the two of them, her betrayal hurts the most. It's also possible that he wanted to mirror her saying goodbye to him earlier in the film (which he also thought was forever). Additionally, it may also indicate that he just refuses to even acknowledge Peter anymore. Either way, he has no more words for them except to effectively tell them he's done with them.

* The fact that many beloved and iconic iterations of Spider-Man, including ''WesternAnimation/TheSpectacularSpiderMan'' and [[VideoGame/SpiderManPS4 PS4 Spider-Man]] have aligned themselves with Miguel's agenda, and try to stop Miles is heartbreaking in itself. In ''WesternAnimation/TheSpectacularSpiderMan''[='s=] case, it gets even worse. Josh Keaton [[https://youtube.com/shorts/o1k1EmQkVjk has suggested]] that he was so lost and vulnerable from the two major losses in his life that when Miguel told him everything, that the tragedies are part of a bigger plan, he joined possibly because to him, Miguel had all the answers. [[FridgeHorror How many other Spider-People have been recruited with their lowest point being a heavy factor?]]

** There's also how Miles doesn't immediately turn around to find another escape, but continues to look at Gwen even after snapping the web and falling, looking hurt and subtly shaking his head as if to signal to her how disappointed he is in her and/or that he doesn't trust her anymore. His hurt look is likely also indicating that despite how determined he was to sever her web, it was still painful for him.
