    This is extremely stupid because, to be an accurate model of the effect of congestion on rail travel, people would have to get out of their car, perform a magic trick to disappear it, and then hop into a stranger’s car every time they entered a congested area.

    Given that nobody has ever done this, we can see that your comment is just bizarre mental gymnastics.

      I agree with your point and really want to upvote it, but to be honest the way you put it was kind of rude. I’ll hold my upvote for now.

        This point is raised by a bad faith idiot as a “gotchya” every time the topic comes up. Rudeness is already far more tolerance than they deserve.
