no, you are right...I do believe it... Stitch's Great Escape is still sitting shuttered after 6 years...and you pass by it on your way into Tomorrowland... not like it is tucked away in a corner.... So Yeah I get it, I am not surprised...
Currently being used as a sangria kiosk
Restaurant Marakesh was utilized as The Florida Blue Lounge last year. Sounded like the kitchen was in real bad shape

Great to have a spot to get out of the heat. Not many people knew about it last year. But I guess that doesn't bode so well for a replacement restaurant any time soon.The Florida Blue Medicare Lounge has returned to Restaurant Marrakesh during the EPCOT International Food & Wine Festival.
The lounge is open daily from 12pm to 6pm through November 18, 2023.
More details and the form to fill out to receive the lounge pass can be found at the link below.

I am not sure that it was a case of people not knowing, but that the majority of visitors do not live in Florida so they were not able to access the lounge.
Perhaps a lot of rule followers, like me. But it doesn't seem to track area codes or zip codes. I read the guidelines the same way you do (FL residents only) but per Disney Food Blog it's "for anyone".
The general under-appreciation of the Morocco Pavilion has always seemed such a shame. It is one of, if not the, nicest pavilion in terms of architecture and theming, and Moroccan food is great! On the latter point, though, they seem to have had trouble even filling the lagoon-side restaurant.
