POP = "well fuck it guess we're never gonna make money on this"
Fair, lemme rephrase: facilitating fare evasion all but guarantees that high ridership never translates into higher-capacity service

It is empirically not facilitating fare evasion because fare evasion does not go up with PoP

I guess I'm just seeing red after seeing people gloating about it--POP may not facilitate fare evasion, but fare evaders certainly prefer POP. Any POP systems that actually turn a profit out there? MTR in Kowloon, maybe parts of the German network?

POP strikes me as resigning to the notion that the system will never be supported by the ridership, and therefore rider needs will never be the top consideration in how the system is operated.
