The fact that someone can afford to stay at the Grand Floridian and get all of the amenities that come with the purchase does not have a negative impact on the quality of stay that I have at Dixie Landings.
I don't know... it seems to me that if a person is the sort who would get cranky that some folks were FastPassing them in line, when the FastPasses are available for use by anyone; that they might also be the sort of person who would wonder why they have to walk an extra quarter mile to the Values' bus stop, or why they're kept out of Stormalong Bay, or why they have to go to another resort to eat at one of the nicer restaurants.
I guess I'm coming at it from the opposite direction as you--I don't think it's logically defensible that someone be upset by others using FastPass, free or paid, when that option is available to them, too.
I mean, the basic problem with the FastPass issue is one of jealousy: I don't want to wait in this line right now, and I'm jealous of that person that didn't have to, even though I was presented with the same options. How hard is it to imagine: I don't want to ride this crowded bus, and I'm jealous of that person with a whole row to himself on the Wilderness Lodge boat, even though I could have stayed there?
I just don't think Disney will see this "perceived unfairness" as a compelling business argument against pay-for-play FastPasses.

PS: DisneyKidds, my last line is the reason I responded to your post instead of st_claire's. st_claire's post struck me as being a personal statement of how the poster felt about the pay-for-play FP. What I was curious about was your statement that it might be a bad business move based on that 'unfair'ness. I think there's a significant difference between saying "I don't like X" and "Disney should make business decisions based on X not being liked." I wanted to find out more about where you were coming from on that, and what you meant.
My mistake.
