I didn't say I liked it, but, even if the parks are filled to capacity, if no one is going to those places to warrant them being opened, I understand why it isn't. It's a waste of resources. I, again, am not one that likes to see things closed, but, there is a difference between an hour or so per day and permanently. I'd guess that the majority of those that are indignant about it, do not support those areas during the times listed. In other words, on a scale of 1 to 10, with 10 being the worse thing that could happen, it wouldn't even reach 5.
As I said, just a few years ago, Future World basically closed down at 7pm. That's not conjecture, that is personal experience. So, what's new and shocking about it. After that hour 99.9% of all the Guests are in World Showcase waiting for the big boomers to start. It's a wonder that end of Epcot doesn't drop into one of the infamous sinkholes during that time.
