Great conversation going on here.
I haven't found wait service to be any less accomodating.
The DDxP actually encourages higher tipping because you eat three courses, so I don't understand why they would be less happy. On signature restaurants we've always had excellent service.
On some regular TS, it's been a mix.
Our worst was at Kona Cafe. Our best, California Grille, Citricos, Fly Fish, Artist Point - equally - all Signatures, though.
It's a market-driven equation. Disney is a publically traded company requiring daily ongoing interest in their debt and equity offerings. They do this through profit margins riding on a value proposition. Disneyworld has built the location and the location warrants higher prices. At the point prices pass equilibrium (i.e. people choosing to drive off site or pack their own somehow), then the pricess concerns could stabilize.
For example, when you to go Manhattan New York for even a reasonable quality steak, it's going to be far more expensive than going to Manhattan Kansas.
