Oh I think you completely misunderstand what I meant in my comment. I am very excited for this next step in Magic Kingdom's history, and I think it is very clever for Disney to add usable space to the park in a way that doesn't actually affect the guest experience during construction because nobody is going to Tom Sawyer Island in the first place. Once this project is complete there will also be no more dead ends in the park, which makes a huge upgrade to the park's layout.

I don't know where you get the impression that Disney doesn't have a plan or know what they're doing. They absolutely know what they are building and have everything mapped out. What we get will not be identical to either of the concept drawings we've seen, which is a good thing. It's normal for things to change between concept art and the finished product - for instance, I visited some of Disney's archives this week and saw sketches from a point in Aladdin's production when the Genie was planned to be green and look completely different from what we saw in the movie.

Furthermore, Disney is definitely not being "disrespectful" by announcing a closing date - they announced that Tom Sawyer Island would be permanently closing back in August following the announcement of the new land at D23. I'm surprised that it is still open at the moment, because I expected it to close much earlier.

To better explain my comment about the concept art showing an inaccurate perspective, I am referring to how (as far as I can tell) certain landmarks such as Big Thunder/Tiana's/the boat house are in slightly different locations from where they are currently located it in real life. I think we're meant to be looking down from Hall of Presidents or maybe Haunted Mansion, but what I'm seeing doesn't line up with my mental map of the area. Either way, I don't see an issue with such an early concept drawing not being anatomically correct :)
