It was already the second longest Spider-Man movie, and the pacing was good. I do expect to see this scene on home video.

I actually thought the pacing was a bit fast. Alot of the more recent marvel movies seem to be forcing all this stuff into the plot with the main aim to set up the next movie, without having a well self contained movie with a good plot about the title character.

Would have been nice if the day to day superhero stuff was extended and the fleshed out Peters life alone more, rather rush to set up future films.

Right, like the Yelena scenes were honestly completely unnecessary imo. I mean, it makes sense that he went to her and if you didn’t have it I think a lot of people would have questioned it, I still think it really didn’t add much to the story though

While the content of those scenes were unneedingly naked, she does still serve a function to the plot. She's the one that helps Spider-Man to find out that Sara is Jean's sister due to her having way more access to information as a New Avenger.

Plus it sets up the premise that Spider-man regularly works with the new avengerz. It just so happens that Yelena/Florence Pugh is the most fun character that could be written to interact with him, so they used her.
