Ordinary people run out of fluid all the time. You just gotta eat/drink/rest to replenish.The mechanical ones give great opportunities for tension when he runs out.
Organic is kinda nasty and lack options to change it up.

Yeah, the same limitations and dramatic moments that come from not having enough web shooter clips - or whatever - can also be had with organic web. It can be Spidey's chakra.Ordinary people run out of fluid all the time. You just gotta eat/drink/rest to replenish.
You mean like when Peter lost his powers in SM2...But how would that really translate in storytelling when almost every other metahuman can use their powers as often as they want?
You'd also have to toss the "broken web shooter" scenario, which is at least as important as the one you describe
Organic is better because otherwise you have Peter Parker still poor despite being smart enough to great a bio-degradable high-tensile highly sticky formula, on the cheap, with incredibly powerful ejectors, but dumb enough to not go to the patent office.
Peter gets slammed across the wall, breaking his wrist thus rupturing his web sacks and has to do without a shooter for the rest of the fight.That's an entirely different thing. That is not the same as getting slammed in the wrist by Doc Ock and having to do without one shooter for the rest of the fight.
His arm gets broken and now he can't do it. Bam.That's an entirely different thing. That is not the same as getting slammed in the wrist by Doc Ock and having to do without one shooter for the rest of the fight.

Naturally Slayven references a fetish webcomic.

Wut? Proportional strengh of a spider? Wall climbing? Spider sense?
:/ poor May
Because that's nastyBy that logic, why doesn't he just extract the web fluid and sell it?

But, they don't?Rude said:
Says more about organic webshooters than me

He could just as easily get his wrists/hands injured or incapacitated, no?
Did Spider-Man stop having an expedited healing power?No
All of these remove what is unique about the problem. Any hero who blasts anything from their wrist can have this problem. They also would mean that he now has a long-term injury instead of something he can just slap on a bench and fix, so you're greatly limiting the frequency with which this kind of problem can occur.
You're also basically melding two different things that can happen to Spider-Man into one thing, restricting storytelling possibilities
If he sold it, people will just be like "oh, Spider-Man uses Parker-Strands, just like every construction company worker"It would expose his identity as Spider-Man, or leave Spider-Man open to legal action from Peter Parker's attorneys.
It's a monstergirl fetish comic, there are driders and giantesses and shit.I think both might be equally relevant here.
However, to be sure, you should PM the link to it and any other organic webshooter fetish comics and I'll judge for myself.
Can't scale up production and reduce costs if you're the only sourceBy that logic, why doesn't he just extract the web fluid and sell it if it's organic?
In this scenario he's even better off, literally the only thing that can produce this.
I don't really think "his X is broken, he can't use it" is all that unique, honestly.No

Happened in the same issue that came up with Slyde. Peter tried to sell his formula to 3M, but since it dissolved in an hour they turned it down. Also Slyde feeling slighted by the same company used his formula for non-stick cookware to become a thiefThat's been covered in the comics before. He tried to patent it, but was told the fluid dissipated too quickly to be useful (which is kinda dumb but lol). He decided to pursue other things.
I never liked the idea of him selling the formula anyways; feels like it'd compromise Spidey's secret identity.
