I'd be more inclined to agree with you if Peter's sexual adventures were being written in a way that didn't make both him and every woman in his supporting cast utterly repellent.
Carlie Cooper is the editorially mandated new love interests that literally no one outside of editorial likes, Norah Winters is like a Diablo Cody collection of screenwriting dialogue cliches come to life, Michelle Gonzales is an insanely racist stereotyping of Latinas as hard-drinking, hot-tempered sex objects, and Felicia Hardy lost every last shred of the character development that made her interesting, while Peter Parker himself now gets drunk on sparkling cider and doesn't give a shit when women he knows are taken advantage of sexually by his psychotic mass-murdering enemies.
This is, start to finish, complete shit storytelling, of such a patently misogynistic caliber that I almost feel like writing an apology to Chuck Austen.
I've suspected that for a while. The wedding was more than 300 issues/20 realtime years ago -- the 50 issues/character year metric makes that almost seven years in Peter's timeline, and even accounting for that being a VERY rough guess, I don't think one could plausibly make it less than four or five years.
Peter and MJ act in Brand New Day like their break-up was relatively recent and still fresh on their minds. A relationship that serious is going to take time to get over, true, but Peter and MJ act as though they've just started to move on (or think they've move on).
Granted, this argument depends on Brand New Day involving any kind of accurate characterization, so it's probably hamstrung from the start. XD
Also, Paolo Rivera? It's like Marvel is taunting me. "Here is an artist you love ... drawing a character you love ... in the middle of a status quo you loathe beyond ability to express! Take that, skalja! Mwahahahaha!"

Gah, I hear that. *Sigh* It's been so long since I bought Marvel. I miss it, but even thinking about trying to get into current Spiderman breaks my heart.
'Grim Hunt', hunh? Okay, reference to the Grim Hunter, Kraven's son who was killed by Kaine. Obviously, Kraven's family.
There is a second, very big thing that didn't happen because of One More Day.
I was reading around the time of the wedding...nothing much really happened...except Kraven's Last Hunt, which occurred after they return from their honeymoon trip to France. Now, I can't think of any good reason that an alteration from married to couple living together would change that. But altering Kraven's suicide certainly counts as a 'very big thing.' :(

At this point I don't really care what was changed. It was a poorly done idea but I'd be lying if I said I didn't like Peter being able to date again.
