It also makes sure you don’t hop off before your destination — a problem that mostly does not happen with air travel.

Why is hoping off an issue? They've already paid. They have their luggage. I've never been on a train that cared if you got off early.

For a train that crosses country borders it can be an issue, if someone hops off the train before arriving to the final station (and having their visa and luggage checked there). Apparently that is not a problem in the US or EU.
