Excellent point! Those individuals who truly have the need for it are also inclined to understand that although they have the GAC, OTHER people also deserve a fair share of the ride time and know when to step away when enough is enough. They are honestly grateful that they have the use of the GAC and would never dream of abusing it. (At least I'd hope so.)
At this point withthat SG lady making such a ruckus - I'd happily limit GACs to MAW families only! Sometimes, I find them the only gracious guests I'd meet in the day. It's a once in a lifetime for them and they cherish their time and moments at Disney. I don't want some namby pamby wolf crying adult raging about "back problems" in the picture, ruining the image of GAC users. It paints a very unfair and dishonest picture of them.

I remember once when I was working at Knott's, I was working the Balloon Race, and it was really slow. This lady and her teenage autistic son came up, and I allowed them to ride a few times. The mom explained her son wanted to ride Red Baron, but he was too tall. They left, and came back to ride a couple more times. It was no big deal, they were the only ones in line--like I said, really slow day--no problems. Otherwise, if there was a line, they would be required to wait one ride cycle before re-riding.
