I'm curious what the "right" answer really is here. With almost 50,000 visitors per day at MK, if even 10% of them request DAS, that's 5,000 people expecting to not wait for popular attractions. Then you have actual Genie+ purchasers. Then you have standby guests. How is Disney to make it all work? Someone is going to be unhappy. There's too many people and not enough capacity. That is an issue getting worse and worse as Disney keeps adding more hotel capacity and not many brand new capacity attractions. DAS is only a piece of this puzzle but what I'm saying is that I don't see how they could realistically make everyone happy with the sheer volume they do each day. 5,000 people cannot all skip the line without decimating the experience for other guests, until/unless the parks have significantly more capacity to handle it.
I sympathize and agree that it's a shame if they lose that "accessible for all families" type of feeling but I kind of think that at the end of the day it's just not realistic with the volume they do.
All I can think of is maybe hosting special off-hours for DAS users, similar to sensory days at other locations. This way, there's far fewer people to begin with.
And of course, Disney does not want the RTQ feature used heavily as that is essentially free Genie+, which is part of why this whole thing blew up to begin with.
