Currently, I think WDW parks are worse than DLR, but I know what you mean.
I still think D’amaro has a good head on his shoulders and a good vision for the parks. He’s been stuck under the thumbs of his bosses, and hasn’t stood up to them like he should (I say from the cheap seats). He’s Iger-esque in that his employees genuinely like him. If he’s faking it, it’s fooling them!
And I know nobody here is going to believe me, but the MDE/G/G+/LL stuff isn’t all bad. It started as a fantastic plan (looked great on a whiteboard), then had a clumsy rollout. And even the planners knew there was going to be some rough going while the system learned. It was right in the midst of this learning phase that Chapek started raising prices and ignoring user data that could have helped make the whole system feel/be much more useful.
