My guess is that there is a lot more bureaucracy at Disney. I've seen it in various companies I work for. It seems to build up over time:
Young company - a bit like the wild west. Just get things done
...a little later - someone made a mistake! There ought to be a rule!
...and then rules just build upon more rules and more paperwork which builds upon more paperwork
...eventually they are a slow-moving corporation with reams of rules and policies and it takes a week and four high-level signatures to get a pencil sharpened.
...meanwhile, another young company is coming up from behind to eat their lunch. They'll face the same "let's create a rule for every situation" problem, however.
You can see that in society. Anytime something happens there's a push for, "There ought to be a law!" More often than not, there already IS a law that covers it and you don't need to create a new one to cover this specific case. All you need to do is apply the old law and enforce it. Also, there's this weird idea that if someone breaks the law that somehow "they got away with it" and, thus, there ought to be a new law which would prevent them from breaking the old law that was already in place. Neither law prevents anyone from doing what they wish and each law only acts as a deterrent.
Still... There ought to be a law.
