I could maybe see this argument. But there are some non-Disney-owned hotels that are better situated at this point than Disney-owned hotels, at better price points.
Magical Express, Transportation, Magic Bands, 180+ 10 ADRs
DME: I'm not sure I'd categorize DME as an incentive. It's free, could possibly be construed as convenient, but I'd argue that the price point of Disney hotels that it's included with possibly negates it's value over the money and time saved with using a taxi service. For pure immersion factor, sure, if that's something a person values.
Transportation: This is valid if and only if WDW steps up and increases the staffing and transport needed. But transport has been a pretty big complaint for years now, with the monorail barely working, overly full busses, etc. If transport were completely efficient, barely anyone would be using cars in the first place.
MB: Assuming you mean "free" MB, since MB aren't actually limited to people staying on-site. This is pretty much only novelty. It doesn't have a function that cannot be accomplished with the old tickets.
180+10 ADRs: I think this one is somewhat arguable as well. It is certainly an advantage for large parties who want to dine together at more in-demand restaurants. But for the average visitor, I can't think of any restaurant that is only available in the +10 range but not at 180 days.
Sure, but if I'm staying offsite I have to find my own way to the parks. To me the biggest perk of staying onsite is walking out of my hotel room and onto a Disney bus, monorail or boat.
Yeah. The off-site shuttles can be pretty infrequent.
I'd agree that is the most arguable perk. But again, WDW should consider increasing efficiency of on-site transport. It needs work.
