Personal opinion warning and all that, but I enjoyed the 2023 tribute store more than any house that year except Yeti - and I thought the house lineup that year was great! Now, that was an exceptional store, but I’d probably rank the 2022 Store above about half the houses as well.
Maybe it won’t happen and all this teeth-gnashing is for naught. If it’s just for this year - well, that’s better than the alternative. But we did the “accepting less because of additions elsewhere,” thing with the streets last year. If Uni wants to knock a couple bucks off the ticket price because they’re stretched thin, that’s fair - but it’s not gonna happen. If they want to charge full price, it’s fair to expect corners not to be cut.
