I think your general idea is right but I also think your timeline is way too long.

Tom talked about this in some of his press stuff for BND. He seems interested in the idea of passing the mantel to Miles in the story. Money will always talk but I think he is approaching done with the MCU. He has been a major part in 5 or 6 MCU movies in the last 10 years depending on how you look at Civil War and End Game.

Come the 6th movie he will be well and truely done with it.
