If done right, this is more like a monthly bus pass

Well this is being done wrong because it doesn’t include any rides with the subscription
Why not just get a monthly bus pass?

It's less convenient, doesn't work nationally and isn't as fun?

If you're planning on taking a Waymo across country, it's going to cost more than 400 dollars.

Nationally != cross country. A Waymo account would be useful to me in the Bay Area, LA, Phoenix and Miami. A bus pass is only useful in one place.

Same thing if you want to take a SF Muni bus to New York City. You're probably looking at buying one outright and hiring a driver
The other people on the bus.
