Every available slot is being taken… this not ‘much demand’ to you?
Eligibility constraints are what keep the windows open right now… not lack of demand

Eligibility constraints are what keep the windows open right now… not lack of demand

If the 1 pm drop is staying open for several hours there are no eligibility constraints other than no re-rides. The park hoppers can get a BG at 2 when they enter.
I really like the ride except for the motion sickness. Because of it being a rollercoaster and the motion sickness issues, it isn't a ride that nearly all Epcot guests will want to experience. Plus, it seems to have high hourly capacity.

Not much demand is relative. It has a lack of demand compared to other attractions that have used VQ, but it obviously has plenty of demand overall or the slots would go unfulfilled (as you mentioned).
That shouldn't be surprising, though. There are multiple reasons it was never going to be as popular as something like FoP or Rise of the Resistance -- Disney's consumer base, rider restrictions, etc.

Might be showing another reason the keep the VQ around as getting a VQ AND buying an ILL only way to ride more than once (other than Deluxe hours on Mondays)
Would demand for the ILL (which is consistently selling out) go down if VQ dropped? Or would it actually increase if standby is 2 hours long and people who were happy to ride with a VQ now would pay for ILL to skip that line?

I'm pretty sure ILL demand would increase significantly. Right now there's little incentive to buy one except for riding twice -- anyone who wants to ride can do so for free since VQ spots are readily available for everyone.
If the VQ is gone, the ride will probably have a 60+ minute standby wait. Anyone who doesn't want to wait in line will have to buy an ILL.

That's true - maybe at the beginning when even the 1pm drop wasn't lasting long there was more ILL demand but now pretty easy to get one at the 1pm drop

Even the morning drop has lasted 3-4 minutes some days now -- that's still pretty quick, obviously, but it also means anyone who is logged in and ready to try for one when the window opens is getting one. It's not like when they're all gone in 5-10 seconds.
