Even that resulted in an hour each way for me pre-pandemic. Then you also need to factor in the exhaustion that comes with using Bart, especially in the evening.

Oh man, is that worse than driving? I'm in London, so I don't really know what it's like in SF. What's so exhausting about it?

I moved from London to Oakland several years ago. In London I would take a bus to work and then walk for 5 minutes to the office. Taking Bart is just not pleasant - the cars are packed, so you stand super close to other sweaty people for 45 min or so. I guess it's comparable to taking Underground during rush hour - same thing.
