Is something wrong with Magic Kingdom’s NEWEST merchandise locations?

Tiana’s Bayou Adventure will officially open to Magic Kingdom visitors on June 28th! Disney has been dropping a ton of details about what we can expect on the opening day, however, there was also a bit of merchandise news that’s got us concerned!
Disney has announced that new merchandise for Tiana’s Bayou Adventure will be in Magic Kingdom starting on June 28th (the ride’s opening day). That’s not much of a surprise, but what IS a little bit unusual is that the new merchandise will NOT initially be located at the two new themed stores opening with Tiana’s Bayou Adventure.

Instead, ride merch and other Princess and the Frog-inspired souvenirs will be available at the Emporium — Magic Kingdom’s big store on Main Street, U.S.A. Their announcement stated, “Shortly after the attraction debuts, the merchandise will hop over to Critter Co-Op in Frontierland.” The announcement did not mention Tiana’s Bayou General — the other themed souvenir shop.
Critter Co-Op
The fact that they stressed availability on Main Street’s Emporium combined with saying that merchandise will be available at Critter Co-Op “shortly after the attraction debuts” would seem to imply that the new merchandise locations either will not be ready to open with the attraction, OR at the very least Disney will not open them initially, possibly as a crowd control measure.

Hopefully, this isn’t a signal that there’s something more serious happening with the construction of these two new shops. In the meantime, we’ll have to wait for more news about it from Disney.
