All the walled areas were there in Dec when we visited and it doesn't look any busier as far as construction goes.
My guess on the point credit issue is due to the timing of the initial announcement. Those that were scheduled to go by the end of 2012 didn't have time to reschedule where as those going in 2013 did or at least knew about the construction early enough to be able to reschedule.
I agree with your post above. I don't think the slide closure had anything to do with the other construction.
We still had a great time in December and can't wait to return in June 2014.

I was there 1/18-1/25, the non-tube slide was closed for half the trip, then they switched, and the tube slide was closed for half the trip. Now, both slides are open and they're closing the menehune bridge.
I don't think it had anything to do with the expansion construction.
As I've mentioned in another thread, I think this time if year is considered off-season, and this is when they are going to do maintenance. It's like going to WDW this time of year. The crowds are low, but big thunder might be closed.
For what it's worth, the photos posted earlier are a little misleading. Most places there is no construction visible. It is unsightly and occasionally noisy where it's taking place, but it didn't stop us from having one of our best vacations ever.
