Not really, sadly. Sony has a duty to keep the films coming whether it's trash or not. If they let time pass between uses, it can activate a film rights return to Marvel. Like what happened with Daredevil, time lapsed and Marvel got their characters back.
I totally forgot about this practice. Marvel really fucked themselves over in the past.
 
That’s why Sony spent only $80m and under on this and Morbius. Firing out a few of these is worth keeping the Spider Man rights to them.

I thought this only applied to the mainline Spider Man films? Or is it fine as long as they’re in the same ‘universe’?

Sony owns a handful (a large one) of the various Spiderman characters. I’m not sure exactly what constitutes what but using them allows for the deal to stay active enough and keep it from reverting fully back to Marvel. It’s also all they have access to, so why not try and squeeze every last drop out of the Spiderman characters.
