You also have to factor in the bump to other movies for having Spiderman appear in their films. Plus Tony Stark is no longer in the MCU, and he was Spiderman's main connection to it.
I'm going to assume that's the initial negotiation figure that's subject to change if Sony is willing to go back and forth with disney. The initial 5% is ridiculous when kevin feige did all the legwork to build that universe. So I was expecting Sony to counter with something, but that article just makes it sound like Sony didn't even try, or maybe this leak was all part of Sonys plan to get some exposure to the situation. If that's the case it's kind of backfiring since Sony is trending right now in a negative way.
