Steve,

Re:but the leverage on SPY is nada.

While there is no leverage with SPY, one SPY position can be a much larger percentage of one's total capital than would be prudent to risk on an option or futures position. It's a good training vehicle for futures, I think, and behaves very similarly to SPZ futures, which of course offer all the leverage one could want.
