Comparing the two openings is like apples and oranges. Universal will deal with reaching their limited capacity and turning people away. Wdw will deal with you knowing in advance you can't go. They also both have a very different crowd mix even among ap holders. And the technology infrastructure to do what they want to do is vastly different. The approaches being taken are very different. And fwiw wdw isn't opening sooner than they wanted by a lot. A week or two at the most from the original target date. The issue is they didn't want to announce dates as soon as they did because the technology change to implement some new ways of doing things with fps, daily park reservations, etc is still a work in progress and having its own set of issues. The things they are putting in place are not for the short term. Expect most to last long term if not permanent.
