They should hold an open casting call and pick the best actor for the part, i.e. able to portray both Peter Parker and Spiderman in this case. Don't choose a white guy because it's only been done and don't choose someone of color just to be different. The fans deserve the best actor possible.
On the breakfast burrito example, you'd have to nitpick other sources of time/money losses. Does buying a breakfast burrito require you to take a detour on the way to work? How long do you wait in line at the drive through? How much gas do you use? And face it, are you really sure of the ingredient quality in your bought burrito?
You get used to the small space because you only stay in them for 8-10 hours a day. I've stayed in tents that size while backpacking for weeks at a time.
