I will never not think that Tiana as it happened in our universe was doomed from the start by multiple factors. But i do get what you intended to say about downtime. I worry slightly too.
It's a reocurring trend with new attractions. Frozen Ever After & Rise of the Resistance also experienced significant downtime when the opened, so much so for Rise that they introduced the Virtual Queue. Hopefully Test Track won't face a similar downtime when it ropens, except for the obvious weather

Yknow, I think new versions of attractions “inspired” by the originals is better than actually getting the originals back. For as cool and nostalgic it would be, it kidna would be a step back, unless updated somehow. Whats gone is gone forever. Im more rooting for a spiritu successor for horizons and gmr someday. A quote I saw somewhere perfectly encapsulates my feelings on the desire to bring a ton of defunct Epcot back: ““deep down people dont really want the same thing from the past again, they really want new things that made them feel the same sense of wonder the original things did”

Disclaimer: classic Epcot is Cool , and I LOVE all the defunct rides dearly.
Well put! I miss that sense of awe

Ultimate Disney experience is to visit what you love and see a first timers reactions, kids are full of wonder
Probably our best trip was our second trip.
Our first trip, our sons were six - and though it was great - they didn't meet the height restrictions for many rides.
The following year we all did Everest, Dinosaur, RnR, ToT, Test Track...
And the best part was none of us knew the rides (well I had been on ToT years before) or ride systems ahead of time.
We were all experiencing them for the first time.
I remember all of us gazing up at Everest as the cars traversed the gap wondering "Can we do this?"
Waiting in the queue for Aerosmith and watching the launches - "Are we up for this?"
I remember my sons and I running up to the entrance of Test Track as the cars whizzed by.
They were so excited at that sight and sound!

Exactly why I avoid spoilers for new rides. The first time you experience something when you don't know what to expect is always the best way to experience it. I realize there is an accidental double entendre in my comment.

My problem with this is that I only go to Disney every other year and being an active participant in this forum it's hard for me to wait until I see a ride in person.

That pattern of attendance does have its advantages over more frequent visits. You miss lots of the interstitial drama between announcement and realization as well as a plethora of walls.
