A line is 10 hours long because people were willing to wait that long. Nobody was being forced to get into the line. They were choosing to get in line because it was worth it to them.
Yeah, I think it is a good way to build hype. "If people are willing to wait 10 hours, it must be pretty amazing."
What's bad is what happened with TSL. 6 hour line to get in the day it opened, a week later no line to get in, and every attraction had a shorter wait than the top attractions at MK and AK, sometimes less than ToT and RnRC in the same park.
IOW, I don't think you can make the determination that a ride is amazing based on initial wait times. That comes down to interest and desire to ride rather than the ride quality itself.

I agree, that line was supposed to be in quotes, as in what random joe-public would think. "Wow, that must be an amazing ride if people are willing to wait that long" or at least "Wow, a lot of people must think that is going to be an amazing ride."
