Don't also underestimate the value of being able to schedule your ILL return time. G+ is always the next available for that ride. ILL lets you choose a return window that can help in planning as well. Especially to help cut down on backtracking through the park and working around ADR's. Keep in mind that the wait time usually goes down after dinner, so if you are planning to be there and don't need the time to do other rides, that is an option as well.
More importantly, so far you have not had to make that decision at 7AM on the day of your trip. ILL availability has been pretty good through out most of the day for MMRR, so you can decide while your there and see the wait times and hw you are feeling.
While there are several disadvantages to the new system, it does actually allow for a lot more flexibility, which is an advantage.
I know someone had started tracking ILL and G+ availability and return times through t the day (Thrill data maybe?) so that is somehting you can monitor as you get closer to your trip.
