Revealing mistake: In the lead up to the final scene, prior to the cranes being in alignment, when Spider-Man is jumping between buildings, he falls down to a fire escape, and you can see that the bars or rails on the railing he lands next to are not made out of metal as they easily move as the actor or stuntperson moves next to them.

Trivia: Peter Parker falls through a roof and lands in a wrestling ring, where he gets the idea of using a mask, a homage to the original comic and the first Sam Raimi film, where Peter tests his spider powers by entering a wrestling match.

Answer: If you're talking about after the dunk scene, Ben didn't see it as Peter standing up for himself. Instead, he says Peter humiliated Flash and then finds out he's the same one that punched Peter earlier. So in Ben's mind, this was retaliation or retribution, which is not OK.
