Think I'll say Sports, because it's usually the Resort that youth teams that are on property for an event are booked into.
Which would you rather put up with:
Excessive rain or large tour groups? |

Large tour groups b/c I can avoid them to a certain point.
Would you pay for a special ticketed nighttime event if it were 21+ at EPCOT during Food & Wine? |

No, but I would be 100% in favor of them having such an event. Would be a great way to avoid the folks who go just to drink. Maybe there would be fewer of them in Epcot on days when said events weren't scheduled.
Attraction for which you feel its days at Hollywood Studios are numbered (not that you WANT to see it erased, but you suspect it's going to happen):
Tower of Terror or Rock-N-Roller Coaster? |

I'm thinking Rock n Roller coaster. There have been some rumors & apparently it's been down for unscheduled maintenance a bit more recently.
Which Disney animated animal do you wish were real?
Winnie the Pooh or Tigger? |

Going to say Tigger. Pooh would likely cause an international honey shortage.
Movie series in need of a reboot, with the child characters now grown up and carrying the storylines:
The Mighty Ducks or Honey I Shrunk the Kids? |

Skateboarding and rollerblading seems more possible, but the liability insurance would be incredible!
Sweet Hawaiian bread at Kona or Three bread sampler at Le Cellier? |

Sadly, haven't had either, but that sweet Hawaiian bread sounds interesting!
Homemade ice cream cookie sandwich (Sleepy Hollow Refreshments in MK) or
Macaron ice cream sandwich (France pavilion in EPCOT) |

The homemade cookie ice cream sandwich at Sleepy Hollow (also available at Dino-Bites in AK, if it's the same thing) has never disppointed, so I'll choose that. Only tried the Macaron one once, and the cookies were really dry, maybe overbaked? Don't have a ton of experience in Macarons, so that might be the way they are supposed to be.
A meal at Tony's:
Pasta or Pizza? |

Possibly overtbaked. Macarons should be chewy, not dry.
I'll try the pizza.
Can't wait for the character meet & greets or the World Showcase cast members from the appropriate country to return? |

Emphatically both! But having to choose, I'll say characters. We have a digital picture frame in our living room that we load all our trip pictures on to. It's the ones with characters that make us smile the most while it's going through it's slideshow, especially when the characters are feeling playful!
Speaking of characters, which secondary characters would you like to see in the parks?
Pleakley and Jumba or Yao, Ling, and Chien-Po? |

Topolino's and the character breakfast, please!
You would rather see:
Park expansion and new attractions every year or
No expansion or new attractions for a season or two, and see a concentration on maintenance for existing rides. |

This is difficult. New attractions can take quite a while to get running. The theory is Disney has to have new attractions or they won't make any money/people will stop coming. I call B.S. on that theory.
Therefore, concentrate on maintenance of existing rides (and resorts while they're at it).
Replaceable batteries & system updates in magic bands or just use your phone all the time (fastpasses, room entry, etc). |

I really kind of like the magic bands. I do wish there was a way to "recharge" them, so a design you really like could be used for several years, though. My cell phone may spend entire days without coming out of the backpack.
Cosmic Ray's when the weather is nice:
Eat inside and watch Sonny Eclipse or eat outside? |
