^Agreed. Portland has only one transit agency, which covers the entire metropolitan area with rail and bus. That one unified transit system is itself a result of Portland's elected regional government, neither of which exists in the Bay Area.

TriMet's transit pass gets you anywhere in the Portland metro that has transit service, so it is worth a hell of a lot more than any one agency's pass within the greater Bay Area. Whether it is worth $100 I cannot say.
