But things not in the launch can easily be deprioritized as budget issues indefinitely. “Oh why spend the money adding support for just a few people??” will be the line moving forward.
Yes just like it’s cheaper to just provide people who can’t afford a phone in the US a phone by taxing other cell phone users - and I don’t have a problem with that.
Refusing to send all your private data to the US to benefit their megacorps, using the tax payers' money, is not "perfection". It is the only reasonable and legal choice.
A 10% goal would be a good first step. Now excuse me while I read some tea leaves to find out if my trains will be on time tomorrow ( spoiler: they wont).
I love how just ordering a ticket is already a minefield for anyone not aware of how crappy german services are integrated. Pick one route, you will get a list of fully customized tickets that cover everything you need, pick another and you will get a list of tickets that will get you fined unless you carefully read through each and pick both a ticket that comes close to what you need and buy more tickets to cover any additional options.
The only thing near 100% perfection when it comes to german services is the full assery with which they are implemented.
Some time ago my "25% DB Card" ran out and was not active anymore, but the app did not display a warning. Even when buying a ticket from the app, it still had the "25% off" option activated by default.
Result: huge fine (something like 200 euros) on the train + I had to buy a completely new ticket (another 100+ euros) because the ticket I had bought ( which was 75% of original price) was considered completely invalid. I tried in all possible ways to get this fine reduced, as it was an honest mistake and arguably caused by their UX, but they did not budge.
I hate hate hate Deutsche Bahn with a passion, yet I still use it cause I'm an idiot who doesn't want to fly for short routes.
You are copy pasting a “correct” argument against eu bureaucracy in the absolute wrong space
