Most of the more problematic scenes are contained in the Africa section of the ride, so it makes sense IMO. The only exception is Trader Sam, who I assume will be switched out for our new Skipper character at the end of the ride to tie it all togetherRealistically, this update is going to happen in under a year (perhaps well under a year), so that timetable probably rules out drastic alterations to every scene, knowing the pace at which modern Disney works.
And @JungleSkip, I hope your theory about the "story" being contained to a section of the ride proves to be correct. Too much emphasis on that could derail the breezy, screwball nature of the attraction.
