Then don't you think they should encourage everyone to keep moving instead of being lazy and standing there. Escalators, like moving walkways, are designed to move people faster, not for people to just stand there like sheep.

It turns out you cannot simply order people to do something they find inconvenient or difficult, even if it is in their best interests.
