Because after very extensive market research and test groups, the new position of the X-Wing tested 12.29 percent higher than the original position, thus leading to a direct directive to the imagineers to alter the existing location to better serve the guest attitude towards the land while only sacrificing 5.27 percent land development offset costs. Thus moving the X-Wing's location ended up saving The Walt Disney Company a total of -0.52 dollars in construction cost and research and development...
Also because there's no Rivers of America in DHS so they didn't have to work around that.
Essentially Disney had to make a rectangle fit into a square hole for DHS.

In DHS, the swamp water will make the green and blue milk marginally palatable.
It will certainly obviate the need for green or blue dye.

Here's a sneak peek of the yet to be released map!
Is this an online map or the SWGE Guidemap??

Online map. But the guide maps at WDW have been using essentially the same maps as what's online. DL still uses the old 'artists rendering' version.

I feel like the way they drew this makes it look small when it’s not. There is more green than land.

Funny, I thought the map made the land look way bigger than it is.
When I got there, I was like ohhh this is tiny.

For now, Cast is being told they can take photos during previews.
My nephew rode it. He is at the manager level at dhs
Sounds like no difference but he didn’t say
He called it solid not great

Taking photos ≠ sharing photos.

No they have not been told to not share.

Interesting... And if I understand your triple negative correctly... Excellent!

And painting the X-wing red/white instead of blue would have raised guest satisfaction at least 31%.Because after very extensive market research and test groups, the new position of the X-Wing tested 12.29 percent higher than the original position, thus leading to a direct directive to the imagineers to alter the existing location to better serve the guest attitude towards the land while only sacrificing 5.27 percent land development offset costs.

I think it looks pretty nice, but they need to fix that awkward looking transition from Grand Avenue.
