I see that as a win win for everyone... nobody has to wait in lines and it would allow parents more time to buy other shit that makes the park money.
Could you imagine a big name park stating that you never have to wait in lines anymore?

They are just starting to experiment with virtual queues and also with genie + lighting lanes having short waits for the exact reason you mention, sell other stuff, however by my estimation the way genie + is working thousands of people have no choice but to wait in regular lines so it’s not going to work as they hope. People who use their genie + reservation on a ride that has them return at 4 pm will and are waiting in regular lines.
I believe that’s why almost everything has very long waits. We waited 20 minutes for People Mover even. Clearly frequent visitors know how to get the most out of it and when to ride things, but the average Disney visitors aren’t doing that.
