    What is the advantage of autonomous trains over regular? It seems to me that when driving a train is your job, the autonomy just takes it away.

      I see nothing wrong with a complex subway map and it is absolutely not a disadvantage. Try comparing it to a map of the roads maybe? A 2D space served by 1D lines necessitate a mesh-like network to do well, has nothing to do with transit or cars, a comprehensive system will always look like this.

      And you memorize literally all the stations and their order if you take transit regularly.

        Im not in disagreement. I actually prefer being a sardine in a can than driving.
