I think the risk of abuse will come from parties of two or families with only 1 adult present. No CM is going to ask young kids to stand in line alone while mom takes the third to the bathroom, they’ll let them leave and give them a return to line pass, how long is it going to take for that family to discover they can skip the 45 minute line and return to the LL before it becomes a trend? Likely the same for parties of 2, I can’t imagine a CM is going to make 1 stand in line while the other is having an anxiety attack or other medical issue, they’re going to let them both leave and give them a return pass for the LL.The key difference is that RTQ makes abusing it a pain in the a*s. If you're a party of 4, two people in your group still have to wait. Then you + 1 other have to backtrack through the queue, go wait somewhere for an indefinite amount of time, then try to coordinate getting back to merge to meet them. It's not a free for all.
Yes technically a party of 2 someone could enter the line, then 10 minutes later leave and request a RTQ to enter the LL, but these feel like the fact you're now dealing with actual people and having to lie to them multiple times throughout the day would be enough of a deterrent, especially if there's some process they have to determine who is using it with regularity and/or not meeting up with their party.
Maybe they have safeguards built in to prevent this but until we actually experience the system it’s all speculation. Those saying it’s doomsday are speculating, those saying it’ll be fine are speculating, until we all experience it it’s all speculation.
