> You can get across Tokyo, with multiple changes, and plan your arrival to the minute.

Except you can’t? You can know your arrival to the minute, but you can’t actually change it to the minute.

Which isn’t actually that much more useful than other systems. Occasionally you will be able to rely on cutting it close by scheduling your ride to arrive right before an apt, but most of the time you are basically in the same boat as in other cities: you are planning to arrive 10-30 minutes early because otherwise you would be late.

I see the pedants have arrived.

I suspect you knew exactly what I meant. No further comment.

I understand what you meant, my point is that it isn’t actually that valuable.

I was clarifying so that my point could be made. I’m sorry that it rubbed you the wrong way.
