While this is a bug, it's also one of the most unnoticed and unspoken about features.
If I'm looking for a house and access to reliable public transit is important to me, I'm going to want to buy in an area well served and expected to be well served 30 years from now as well.
Track and train stations mean this is likely to be true. At least far more true than a bus route.
In this manner city planners can't pull the social contract rug out from under you as easily.
