Epcot Monorail station security

Does anyone know if they have ever considered reversing the flow of pedestrian traffic through the Epcot Monorail station. And if so, why they have not.

It seems odd to me that you can board the monorail within the security borders in the Magic Kingdom resort area, transfer to the Epcot beam, but then once you get to Epcot you will have to go through security again. This can be avoided if they reverse the flow of pedestrian traffic through the Epcot Monorail station so that what is currently the exit side becomes the boarding side and that be boarding side becomes the exit side dropping you off within the security borders of Epcot main entrance. It seems like such a simple solution I'm surprised they haven't executed it yet.

Just briefly to point out that means that just to leave Epcot by monorail, you would have to go through security. At closing time, after Illuminations, that would be a total nightmare. Don't even want to think about that!

There are plans to reconfigure the entrance, but as to when.... That is the million dollar question.

That's a decent point. However is it any different than having to go through security at TTC? During the rush of morning when Magic Kingdom is flooded with tram after tram of guests coming in Bound?
