I knew that for Disneyland’s but I didn’t realize they shipped some of them over to MK’s Splash.I think it's fair to point out that many AAs used for Splash were recycled from America Sings. They were able to get creative in that regard to fill the attraction up. Tiana's didn't get the same benefit.
Still, my point remains. Even though they reused a lot of AAs from America Sings, they still built that entire ride from the ground up. Why can’t they at least try to match that AA count that Splash did since it’s an overlay? They still made a fair amount of AAs specifically for that ride.
When changing it, they should have realized part of what made Splash great was for its heavy cast of AAs and clear linear story as the ride progresses. There are noticeable empty spaces in ride, and there is no clear story.
