In Marvel 1602, Peter Parquagh and David Banner explicitly become "Witchbreed" (i.e., mutants) after getting exposed to the interdimensional radiation of a Portal Door. While Spidey and Hulk have had radiation permanently alter their genes in the main universe, they distinctly lack homo superior genes and as such are not considered mutants.
It seems less like 1602 Peter and Banner are mutants (in the Marvel sense), and more like the people of the 1602 setting don't actually know what a mutant is, because how could they? They certainly don't know about homo superior genes, and whether a given person has them or not.
Not sure about this.
