I know it does not usually seem like it but I have come to the conclusion that Disney is interested in the overall health of the Oralndo tourism business. That is why they are not reacting immediately to Uni and SW additions.
You've come to the wrong conclusion then - or at least concluded based on poor inferences.
Disney does NOT care about the Orlando tourism business as a whole - they care about theirs and theirs only. They have focused their efforts for the past twenty years in building it up as an all purpose resort. They aren't just going to throw that away and say (in a stupid goofy voice) "Golly...I sure hope Sea World and Universal are doing well. Folks should spend more time there and less time at WDW" They have a self-sustaining resort, for the most part - they need guests to visit Lake Buena Vista, NOT the greater Orlando area.
If Disney cared about the growth and health of the Orlando tourism industry in general, they would do what they do in Southern California, and offer a multi-day pass that allows admission into Sea World, Universal, and the Disney at a discount. In Southern California, they need to do this, as it's far less of a all inclusive self-sustaining powerhouse resort than Walt Disney World is.
Them not reacting to the coaster additions at SW and Universal is just Disney being cheap and conservative. Their idea of a "coaster addition" is going to be Space Mountain's overhaul.
Also, and of major importance is; Disney wants the new DTD to be for families. They have said this so it shouldn't be a suprise the clubs have closed. Disney is taking a hit finacially at DTD but they have long term goals for what they want DTD to be. And when all those folks who are club hopping at CW eventually settle down and have families, do you think they will be taking their kids to the clubs at CW or the family friendly DTD?
For once Disney is planning for the long term. We should celebrate that.
Again - you are using poor logic here and not making any points. When those people club hopping at CW, that you refer to, settle down and have kids, sure - they may go to DTD, but the kids in the generation prior to them are going to want to go club hopping - and those same parents are also going to want to escape for a night or two on their vacation to club hop and do adult things, and Disney will not have that.
On top of that - there's nothing "family friendly" yet about what is going into the former PI area. Last I checked, "Fuego" and Raglan Road are far from "family friendly", and the new Tequila Bar addition is anything BUT family friendly.
Disney has no real intention of turning PI into a family friendly area. That was just the spin they put on the closing of the clubs. The real issue that Disney had was that they did not want to manage clubs or take the risk of the liability of the clubs. They would be fine with having 3rd parties come in and lease the space to run clubs of their own - but they dont want their name attached to it. It's for that reason that Mannequins is still fairly intact, as is most of the other clubs.
