How? Flying gives you the option of getting there and sleeping in a hotel or just flying the morning off.

If you're convenient to the airport on both sides and want to spend on both the flight and the room, knock yourself out. No 800 sq ft suites with balconies on a train. But if your aim is the city center on either end, and you'd like to not waste time or money, a night train with comfortable bunks is perfect. You waste few waking hours traveling in/out of airports, stripping for TSA, etc.

The odds of either origin or destination being near the LA train stop are roughly 0% and maybe 1% on the SF side.
This is just as inconvenient for the vast majority of residents who make the LA/SF travel as going to the airport.
