It seems like your problem is that it's done with a computer, and not on paper?
We're obviously not going to agree here. Animation is different now because the creators of Spiderverse tried something new. Saying something is a leap forward doesn't take away from the things that came before, and it doesn't mean that hand-drawn things still can't be great. It was a visualization that hadn't been executed before, and I came out of the theatre feeling like I had literally just lived through a comic book and that THAT was how animation would look going forward.
Would you say the same thing about music? Was Hendrix not a leap forward simply because he was playing Blues music at its base? He didn't invent a new instrument or new notes or something. He just played it in a way that no one else had done before.
