I give up, reduced waiting times is not a "handy positive" of single rider queues, it's the entire purpose of single rider queues!!!!
It did not slow throughput on Rita (I worked on it).
The reason SRQ was removed was so that they could cut a merge host, by having Fastrack arrive at the station itself.
I can only assume this is the purpose behind removing it off other rides, too. It saves money - and we know how tight the purse strings are these days when it comes to operations.
Fair point for Rita, but if we are to believe that the park have now removed SRQ on rides like The Smiler, Th13teen or Oblivion this would not save on staffing as the fastrack merge is at the same place as the SRQ merge.
