I was a little sloppy with my choice of words and might have implied that forced perspective doesn't exist in the Magic Kindom. It was used just not as much as it was in Disneyland, particularly on Main Street, USA.
Here's a quote from
101 Things You Never Knew About Walt Disney World: An Unauthorized Look at Tributes, Little Touches, And Inside Jokes, by Kevin Yee.

The scale of buildings and vehicles is one immediately noticeable difference between the parks. Because Disneyland was built on less acreage, everything was often built to a small scale, utilizing “forced perspective” (features get smaller than real life as they get taller) to make buildings look bigger. While the Magic Kingdom also uses forced perspective, it does so with more subtlety and less often, because the park was built on more acres and offers the ability to create vehicles and buildings at full size.

Kevin Yee said it better than I did.
