Atlanta airport layover...how short is too short?

I only fly Delta, and i never choose a flight with a layover less than an hour. Just my personal preference after a few stressful situations, ie sitting on the plan too long after landing, having to get to a terminal far away when the escalators are crowded and you can't move. My Disney trip starts in the airport so I like delta on comfort plus or first class with an hour or more of layover time. I will sacrifice lots of other things so I can have a nice airport experience.

Such an odd thought to me. And a yet another example where people have very different ideas of what makes or breaks a vacation.
I will sacrifice a lot of things for a nicer experience (better hotels, better food choices, add on's, etc) at my destination, where I'll be spending the bulk of my time vs. the airport where it is nothing more than a necessary evil to fly and get from point A to point B. I want in and out of there as fast as possible and spend a little time as humanly possible inside it. Reasons why I paid for PreCheck and Clear. And why we always use RAC and ME luggage delivery. Anything to speed up my time there.

Lol, yes there are so many opinions of what makes a great vacation. Idk why but travel experience is a huge factor for me. I usually sacrifice cost of food to get what I want in a flight since I'm not a foodie and I'm just as happy with plain marinara pasta in the room and a glass of wine.
