I recall from AF15 that the spider dies almost immediately after biting PP, but I remember seeing a re-telling of his origin where Peter treads on the spider to kill it after that pivotal moment.

That always seemed like a very un-Peter Parker like thing to do!

Yes, Stan described the bite as the spider’s dying action.

I treasure the story where Spider-Man is trapped under a ton of debris in a room filling with water and all he can do is reflect on his life.

When he musters what it takes to lift that debris and go on living, I figure THAT is how strong he is-- just strong enough to do that when his life depends on it.
