Some Dvcers wonder if Disney will build a second tower at Bay Lake. Now, there are lots of reasons why it couldnt or shouldnt happen. But lets assume for the sake of discussion that a second tower is built, and that it is identical to the present tower in size. Also, lets assume that the second tower, called BLT-2, is built where the South Garden rooms are now located and that it is part of the Bay Lake Resort.
How will a second tower affect the
point chart for an enlarged BLT?
BLT-1 will have about 5.73 million points allocated to it when it is fully declared. If BLT-2 is identical to BLT-1, then it, too, will have the same 5.73 million points allocated to it. This is because all accommodations of similar size at the same resort must be allotted the same number of points. At BLT-1, a two-bedroom accommodation is allotted 19,640 points and a Grand Villa is allotted 34,975 points. That same points-to-size/accommodation formula will have to be used at BLT-2. This means that BLTs point chart will now have to account for twice as many points, or 11.46 million points
Now, lets assume that the Contemporarys A-frame building blocks views of MK from BLT-2, so BLT-2 wont have any MK views. In fact, some of BLT-2s accommodations might have to be downgraded from MK to Standard. Just a drop from MK to LV would result in a loss of about 275,000 booking points at BLT-2, and it would be a greater loss if villas had to be downgraded to the Standard View category.
On its point chart, a resorts relative total points cant go up, but they also cant go down. If BLT-2 cannot generate 275,000 booking points, then those points must be made up by the other accommodations at BLT, both at BLT-1 and BLT-2. Thus, the entire BLT resort might see a slight increase of a point or two per night in all booking categories to handle BLT-2s shortfall.
There are other ways that BLT-2s shortfall could be made up. One way is to create separate booking categories at BLT-2 that charge more than comparable LV and Standard views at BLT-1. But why would someone want to pay more at BLT-2 for the same LV as at BLT-1?
Another way to make up the point difference is to create a new category at BLT-2, such as a Concierge Level, which charges as many, if not more, points as the MK category. Like AKVs Concierge Level, the additional point charges are not based on views but amenities offered.
Of course, one way to keep from having a second tower adversely affect BLT is to make BLT-2 into its own
DVC resort. That way, its not encumbered with BLT-1s point structure and can have its own accommodation formula.
I do agree though- enough speculation on that as a reason. I think South Garden Wings sell out is a likely enough of a reason to NOT build BLT2... Having different price levels of rooms near the monorail is good, just like val-mod-del; something to capture everyone's $$$. 
But isn't TTC to the LEFT from this angle? 
Yes. I am somewhat ambidextrous, so confuse right and left often. My Mom is even worse, she has full writing capability with either hand, and does some things right handed and others left handed.
