I think wild mouse coasters, and compact coasters in general, are underrated. You don't need 4G's at 60 mph to make a good ride - sometimes you sacrifice ride time and theming just to go taller and faster. Roller coasters as an art form are more than just the track. That's like saying a concert is just the music - it has to have the visual appeal, the emotional connection, the audience interactivity to tie it all together into a complete guest experience. And wild mouse coasters are perfect for that application - with tight turns and quick transitions you can change orientation much quicker than a giant B&M - not only that but they can be more accessible to more riders, more cost effective, and just outright more fun-oriented.
Sometimes it feels like bigger coasters get too caught up in seeing who's the biggest and baddest kid on the block that they forget to just have fun - I used to work at Space Mountain WDW: it's stats are about as unimpressive as they come - top speed isn't even 30 mph and the biggest drop is around 25-27 feet. Yet nobody cares - it consistently got some of the highest wait times (and I can say from experience, it's actually pretty decent about capacity - rockets can dispatch every 19.5 seconds). Space Mountain is more beloved by cultures around the world than say, another slam-you-with-positives B&M (and don't get me wrong - I love a good B&M, I'm just saying people need to appreciate littler coasters like wild mouse more).
