Now that we’ve gotten the SFMM announcement, I have to ask: Is there any chance that Universal could attempt to build another dueling coaster? Or did Dueling Dragons ruin that chance forever?
 
Then people are going to keep bringing stuff on the rides. Guest pathways aren’t the only problem here. The items can get in the ride gears, liter the dark ride paths, etc.

Guest pathways are absolutely the *biggest* reason. The rest is annoying, but you're not gonna get sued for someone's wallet lying in a dark ride scene.

Guest pathways are 100% the reason. Why else does RRR, Hulk, and DC have meta detectors but Gringotts and Mummy didn’t? Guest paths. Things dropping from Hulk and incidents at DC directly lead to metal detectors, which are an ops and guest relations nightmare.
 
Hulk and RockIt will be the only coasters Universal wants with metal detectors. I'm sure once RockIt becomes unbearable to maintain they will probably rework the layout to avoid guest areas at all costs.
