I just realized something that makes me think.
You know how well Marvel handled the whole conversion of Ms. Marvel (Carol) to Captain Marvel, and then putting a new character in the place of Ms. Marvel? Well, that's how Miles should be handled. While I did think of this before, this is a perfect comparison. The original ranks up, while the new character gets to be in the old place.
I don't want some old geezer Peter, I want him to still be relatively young (late 20s, early 30s) and have a family. He should have a very successful Parker Industries that is a direct competitor to companies such as OsCorp and Stark Industries. He should still have a role as a Superhero, but no longer street level. He does things that are worthy of him. Miles should also look up to him as an inspiration, similar to how he looks up to him in Ultimate Comics Spider-Man.
This is good because it satisfies both those who want a more relatable Spider-Man (Miles Morales, as minorities are more likely to be there in his situation), and those who want Peter to be successful and still be very important.
Everything Marvel has said so far supports this theory (as far as I remember), so I really hope this happens.
