Once capacities return to normal at the parks (and once DLR is allowed to open and then open at full capacity), it theoretically shouldn’t have to be a choice between locals and the higher spending vacationers.
If we’re talking long term program here which it sounds like we are and not just temporary something to get through the initial crush, I think whatever this program is will be good at getting the max amount of money out of people as Disney does, but I do not think they’re going to be attempting to push out locals. There will be room for everyone to hand their cash over eventually.
I think the issue out west is that despite the fanatical following it has among Disney People(tm), Disneyland really isn’t a tourist destination in the same way as FL. Even the 1 time I went there, as a kid, it wasn’t for the parks, we just happened to be visiting people in LA and went with them. They can’t push out locals entirely. The Once in a Lifetime crowd aren’t heading there, they’re spending a week in FL making it rain in the Emporium and asking where Harry Potter Land is
No matter what kind of chicanery they try to pull to rein in their “AP problem” it’s always going to exist just because of the nature of Disneyland tbh
