Yep MK is there for that mashup reason IMO.
And HEA is far more than larger bursts by far than Illuminations.
I'm just saying that loosing Wishes sounded horrible, mostly because they would be adding projections meaning less pyro would be needed. But when it turned out to have more pyro than Wishes (on top of amazing projections), and arguably more pyro than Illuminations-I was pleasantly surprised.
That (HEA) is why I am encouraged by a new Illuminations.
A new Illuminations can also be completely original, unique, beautiful and moving, and believe it or not-have more pyro and other visuals than the current Illuminations.
