Personally I like tempesto so I would like for it to stay at BGW. I just really think that the park placed it in such a weird spot. I would like to see it moved from right next to Apollo. I think it could look in Italy across from either the gardens or from Marco Polo or tucked into the area between Scotland, England and Ireland. I'm sure there are other spaces it could go as well.

I dont think a park has ever moved a coaster without moving it to another park

You are probably correct but tempesto and rides like it are coasters that are designed to take up a very small space. I think they could be moved if the park wanted to. The problem is that at BGW there isn't a lot of space so it's unlikely that BGW would ever look to build something in the space that it sits like they have done for years with the scrambler.
 
I just rode for the first time Wednesday and really enjoyed it. I thought the launches were great. I did think it was awkward to get in and borders on unsafe with how open it is between cars. The collars didn't bother me at all, but I'm tall. I think it is a fun addition, I just hate how it looks there.

I think the park adding Tempesto and putting it in that location specifically was a mistake. Hopefully with MMXX on the way, it will cause low ridership and it will be gone for good. ?

But that would never happen. ?
