Ahh, the cost of maintenance.

I personally don't see this as a major issue. Shutting down 1 hr. after the park closes (instead of 1.5 hrs.) & not operating late on E-nights is not that much of a change. This decision is the lesser of two evils (the other one being the Monorails taking themselves out of service during the day).

The Disney bus system is nothing short of fantastic.

The only problem is if your at a Monorail restore your going have to walk or take a boat. Unless they start using a bus to and from the Magic Kingdom.

FYI:

Exiting theme-park guests will instead be transported to their cars or hotels via buses or boats.
