Park enthusiasts can sustain an impressive conversation about a very small design decision. Missing the Mouse’s 471: Pretend That You’re Hearing the Music moves from Space Mountain music history into speculation about a lowered ride-height requirement. The hosts repeatedly acknowledge that they do not know whether the change means a less thrilling ride. That audible uncertainty matters: the enjoyment comes from following their curiosity, while the speculation remains speculation.
