Also, I recommend the 3rd or 4th gate on the left, next to a column that will provide shade for you 100 minute wait to get in.
I also wasn't even thinking disability. At least they don't allow Express for EPA.

I've been told by a TM at EPA that they will soon be revamping their EPA to be more, dare I say, equitable to all guest. To not allow experts to exploit it. That's all that was said. Nothing about specific parks, just in general. I'm guessing 1 ride per person per attraction. Which would suck for my 3 or 4 runs thru the Paddock in the morning. I asked if it would stop the Hagrid runs and not necessarily was the response.

Also, for now, Valet or Walking from Stella will give similar outcomes if arrival is by 8 am.

Wait, who is "exploiting" EPA?? If people are riding Velocicoaster 7x during EPA (my personal record), how is that exploiting vs. just making user of perk? EPA people are standing in the same line available to everyone else, so I'm confused how anyone views it as less equitable for people who have access to it.

Yeah, I don't get this either. I have a hard time buying this as a problem, let alone one worth the type of solutions it would require.

Umm. I think I know what this is about. But, Im stepping away from the live power line.

Equitable was my take, the vague conversation just was to allow everyone to get a benefit from EPA. Regardless of putting in the effort to be smart and get there early. I agree it's dumb, you can spend 10 minutes of research when spending thousands on a trip or deal with not doing so.

So for those who have been during AP previews - are they allowing guests to request to wait for the front row?

I think I remember reading that Stardust and maybe Hiccups had a dedicated line, but what about Mario Kart / Donkey Kong / Battle at the Ministry?

Most seating requests have been accommodated during guest previews from what I’ve seen. Although I haven paid attention on stardust.
