Something was done--aside from his deal with the devil (and

And whatever that was,
Peter is aware of the "who/what/when/where/why/how" of it.

But the logiic twists up becase there was no historical
change. Supposedly everyone just forgot that Peter was
Spider-Man and that there was never any marriage between
Peter and MJ. ?Without the historical change there's no way
that you can explain an historical happening where
Spider-Man's identity was erased from everyone's memory, not
to mention any hard evidence supporting it all.

The memory erasure would certainly have been significant
either before
or during OMD that it would have been chronicled in one of
the titles.
But we know that it didn't happen before OMD because SHIELD
was looking for Peter/Spider-Man. So are we to believe that
there was a large time gap between OMD and BND during which
this happened? ?I felt
that BND began the day after OMD. ?No evidence other than it
felt like
the next morning.

--IIRC there *was* a gap in time between OMD and BND.

Indicated by what? ?All indications were that Peter falls asleep
with May still on her death bed and then he wakes up with May
not only healthy but in a house that was supposedly destroyed.
?Nothing said, "Six months later..."

--by virtue of the fact that Peter doesn't wake up next to Aunt
May, and that we know that Harry rebuilt her house. There's a
clear time gap. Though it didn't become readily apparent. It took
a few months.

But it's Mephisto. He made stuff happen retroactively anyway, like
Harry being alive. There's no reason it couldn't be the next
morning, but Aunt May's house was rebuilt 6 months ago. I assume
May never got shot at all too.

She must have gotten shot. Remember, the only thing Mephistod did
was invalidate the marriage and, apparently, remove everyone's memory
of Peter's identity. Everything else happened as portrayed. At
least that's what Marvel said when it happened.

But it didn't. He hasn't got the organic webshooters, Harry's alive,
May wasn't shot (or has a big scar and there's a majik keeping anybody
from seeing it) etc. etc. etc.

As far as the organic webshooters are concerned, Marvel's (or at least
Joe Q's) position has always been that it still happened, but something
we haven't seen changed it back.

Lots of potential there for someone to 'splain the story then. But
ultimately it was probably Joey's decision that allowed the organic
shooters to happen in the first place in order to goose-step into
place behind the movie.
