Wonder 2-Night A Mess

Only cruised one other line (NCL) and they are more strict about forcing you to wait your turn. We had major issue in Miami boarding the Magic because no one was enforcing the boarding time - everyone just rushed up as soon as they saw people moving. A queue system would make more sense - block off access to the atrium and send people to clubs or the theatre based on luggage tag color to wait.

Making you leave your room by 8am when breakfast isn't until 8:30 only adds to the problem.

Well some people have breakfast at 6:45. And Cabanas opens early for those who don't want to wait until their assigned breakfast time.

We've always been able to go "somewhere else" while waiting.

The point was about Disney's disorganized debarkation process and the crowds trying to get off the ship.

As you said, you have to go "somewhere else" if you are second seating and want to eat breakfast in the dining room, which means more people in the atrium or in the hallways that wouldn't have to be there if they could stay in their room until breakfast.

If, as you said, some people eat at 6:45 or eat in Cabana's, the number of staterooms occupied for that extra 30 minutes would not significantly disrupt the cleaning of the other rooms. When I was on the Dream, I went back to the stateroom during late breakfast because my daughter left something behind and they hadn't even started cleaning it yet.

Well, we typically have the early breakfast, and by "go somewhere else" I meant on those cruises that you have to debark according to your luggage tag, we've found somewhere else to be while waiting. On the Magic class ships we've waited in Promenade Lounge, and Cove Cafe at various times. But, then, I'm not one of the "must be off as soon as possible" group. I hang around for a bit, until things die down in the atrium.
