Generic flat rides

Sorry if this has been mentioned already but I haven't come across it..
I'm a bit worried that most of the flat rides are going to come ready-themed. While theming is obviously very important I feel when rides are themed already it is more limiting than anything else.
I remember this issue in RCT3 as I always ignored ready themed flat-rides as they never fit with my "park-plan".
If I'm building a park I usually have a theme in mind already, so for example I might be building an area themed around pirates. If I decide I want a certain flat ride... Such as top-spin for example, in my pirate area but it's themed as something else, this is a huge issue!
I'd much much much prefer generic designed flat rides so that we can choose whatever ride we like to go in whatever area we like and theme it ourselves.
Don't know what you all think but I've always found ready-themed rides annoying more than anything. Now, if we could somehow integrate themed objects to generic flat rides that would be awesome.

Most of the rides we've seen have been generic. In the stream they said they were just showing off their creativity. I'm sure they will give us generic versions of most flat rides with theme overlays for special ones.

I'm worried that most the rides they have shown us haven't actually been generic...

If you look through this vid:

The first one has waves on it,
The pirate ship is... as generic as a pirate ship can be, I'll give it that.
The swing tower has sun rays and the happy guy sat at the top with sunglasses
The plane ride has a skyscraper in the middle
The Ferris wheel has a sun on it
Then there's the witch ride,
The octopus ride,

The only generic ride shown is at 5:16.

All these rides are brilliant, and there's obviously been a lot of work put into making them. It's just going to be limiting to always have to have the same themes for the same rides. Every park will look the same! I would have hoped to have been shown more generic rides that's all, I don't really want themed rides. That should be left to us.

I hope you're right though! I'm sure they'll notice this and give us generic versions!
