I thought this until I tried to book a ticket recently and found that megabus had cancelled the route I wanted to use entirely.

Just because a private bus company canceled a route doesn't mean that the government would (or perhaps should) operate routes that don't meet some metric of popularity.
It is very common for governments to operate or subsidize unprofitable public transport routes in the name of accessibility.
Yes, but they invariably draw the line somewhere.
