Lots of things are empty at MK.

Amazing how they'd sooner spend billions tearing up the RoA on all sides before reopening any existing spaces.
People won’t flock to MK/WDW for a Stitch replacement like they will for the Coco/Encanto & Villains expansions. Simple as that. Plus merch & F&B sales from these new lands will be ridiculous. Especially if they put in a villains bar.

They're adding these things for (presumably) the sake of capacity.

If that is the issue than there's plenty of other ways to accommodate the park's crowds too.

Obviously new things will draw in people, but that shouldn't be the only solution. Too much of MK's expansion/additions since 2010 have not made the best use of their space and existing facilities continue to be underutilized or ignored.

Such a scoop: They may or they may not do this thing...

...we believe Disney is debating retheming Frontierland at Walt Disney World into a New Orleans Square-style street, featuring a Tiana Restaurant and a completely reimagined Country Bears attraction!​
I mean it's basically the announcement that was made at the D23 Expo with the same level of conviction that D'Amaro made it.

You're right, Adventure, Frontier, Fantasy and Tomorrow are specific terms.

Riverfront Square would have a unifying theme of how our country expanded along the river banks and still very likely tie back to the Mississippi and Colorado Rivers.

Without getting into politics/veracity/etc., I would bet anything about how America expanded would be flagged as potentially problematic. I agree there is a potential theme there. I simply wouldn't anticipate current Disney to use it. (Let alone the usable IP catalogue there is more limited as well. By way of example, I don't see a Pocahontas attraction in this area, even though it is very much part of that story...)
