So, is France the most expansive pavilion after this in World Showcase? I don’t mean so much size as I do offerings.

Let's just call the tower and cabling "ziplines" and be done with it. Would be authentic.
2 attraction facilities, 2 restaurants, two QSRs, 4 stores and an ice cream parlour? Probably.

5th gate? Just build a new resort Bob.
Bump. Anyone hear anything recently?

It's interesting how the balance between realistic, immersive theming and fantastical theming shifts from time to time. Back when Walt was designing his original park, he reportedly paid extra to have utilities buried because he preferred not to have overhead wires cluttering views. While this took away some of the realism of areas like Main Street U.S.A, it enhanced the "idealized turn-of-the-20th-century (c. 1910) American town".
Decades later, when DCA's entrance area is re-themed to another semi-realistic representation of a period-specific American town, designers feel compelled to add functionally unnecessary, non-operational, "decorative" overhead wires for their Red Car Trolleys.
Round and round it goes.

They look super ahead on this project. Of course we can’t see the inside but if the outside is any indication they seem very far ahead. This is scheduled for summer? Looks like it could be ready in early summer but of course we don’t know the state of the inside construction. I think this looks perfect for Epcot.
Vehicles have been moving. Not without...issues.

Similar problems to rise with WiFi connectivity dead zones? Pucks? Or something else.

I read this as "expensive" which is also probably true. Need to get new glasses.

Unfortunately no. That's always been there.

At least they came up with nice designs to "block the box".

Why do I get the feeling they're gonna leave that wall completely unthemed...?
Weird decision, considering how visible it will be for everyone walking towards Rat

On one side.

That's the side you're walking toward the attraction. The opposite side is backstage.

The opposite side looms over the Morocco Pavilion.

Is looms the right word? I've only seen one photo that showed it peeking from a specific area.

It is not peeking. It is massive. Here’s a photo showing how much is visible, now in green with stairs attached.
