I agree, Swoosh. SDC is unique in that you almost have to seek out those rides. They are tucked in off of any "midway" (except GE and FL of course). However, I could see two attractions "kiss" each other, or "salute" each other just briefly at some point. I don't think they need to weave in and out of each other, unless their storylines are clear and they are paired with that in their purpose. Combining rides with food and shows, on the other hand, is really how they can save space and create atmosphere.
Thanks for the picture, by the way, as I can see a great deal of space for that dark ride about which we keep dreaming.
