They could have the ALL STAND rule for some stations, ALL WALK for others.

Since the government is willing to FORCE people to things they don't want effectively breaking a COMMON RULE OF THE TRADITION they shouldn't bother being reasonable.

Perhaps they should also set optimal speeds and force people to comply. Wait, that's what they're doing!

It's not "the government" and it's not "force".
