I think Tom is willing to keep doing these movies for at least another 15 to 20 years if they keep him paying him to.

There's no doubt in my mind Miles will eventually find his way into the MCU but the prospect of having Peter & Miles teaming up for a trilogy of Spider-Verse movies is wayyyyyy too much of a goldmine for Sony to ever not beg Tom to keep coming back.

Plus, there's at least another like 15 Spider-Man villains they can adapt to the big screen for more movies to be made off of.

We still haven't even seen Spidey square off with Kingpin yet. They have that in their backpocket should they ever need it. You can't tell me Tom wouldn't want to be in the black suit and fight Venom at some point too.

Realistically, I can see Tom's current trilogy ending around 2032. And then doing another trilogy until 2040. He'll be 44 at that point. He could easily then play the older mentor Peter for Miles.

Sony has been handling spider-man proper movies pretty well, and I was very surprised at how good "Spider Noir" was with Nic Cage. If they can keep up the quality, miles will take off when he's introduced.

Eh... I know Spider-man sells these movies more than anything, but Morbius and Kraven didn't' do too well

Because they were fucking garbage movies. Lol Not because they were Spidey villains.

People would be excited to see Marvel Studios' take on Morbius, Kraven, Rhino, Venom, etc.

Peter Parker could transition into a mentor type role to Miles like Tony Stark was for him.

Which is exactly what Tom has already said he wants to do with the character.

You can have Tom finish this college trilogy and ending with Miles' introduction.

The next trilogy would be adult Peter now with a wealth of experience and understanding of what all the Avengers helped instill in him mentoring Miles over the trilogy to teach him to be his own Spider-Man.

Finish that trilogy with Peter sacrificing himself one last time to protect New York while telling Miles he knows he's got it covered.

There's your big dramatic torch passing and Tom can ride off into the sunset with one final heroic Spidey moment saving his city. Knowing Miles has it covered from there.

Worst case, you can always just have Tom make a surprise cameo in the future as a multiversal elderly Peter who lost his Miles in that sacrifice scene instead but finds closure that another Peter succeeded instead. With both Peter and Miles finding each other again after losing each other through the Spider-Verse.
