No, because without MaxPass you still have to cross the parks for FPs. It's just that (at the moment anyway) now in a lot of cases you can do the running right NOW vs having to wait for your time frame to open up and spacing out the running around.
For example my day in DCA on Tuesday:
Picked up GoTG FPs around 9:05 ish for 12:05-1:05. Our window to get the next FPs was 10:54
At that time Soarin FP return was 11:05-12:05. While older DD took the kids to meet Cap, DH and I went and picked those up and headed over to TSMM where the return was 11:10-12:10. We picked them up and since we were already passed our return window we could have gone on to RSR and picked up FPs there. All before the kids were done meeting Cap. We wanted a night time ride on RSR so went and rode Soarin, TSMM, had lunch, rode GoTG and then picked up RSR FPs on our way out for an afternoon break. Had I realized what was going on I probably would have grabbed Soarin, TSMM *then* GoTG saving us an hour of wait time for FPs.
So what it does is eliminate the need for a runner while others are riding. There's no time to kill so no need to split up to do that in a lot of cases.
