In reality Disney is asking us to plan up to 45 days ahead of time where we might be during a given window of time at a specific park. You cannot factor in things like weather, health, restroom breaks, moods, etc. The technology just is not there yet to accommodate this utopia and if it was then your ticket would probably be much more that about $100 per day.
I look at the fast passes as a nice to have but not necessarily a need to have. Are there days when we use them all and add more...yes! Are there days when we miss a bunch because we changed our plans, got busy doing something else or the weather maybe did not cooperate...yes! Do we hold it against Disney or did it diminish from our stay...absolutely not! Just my two cents...
