There is going to be 3 old cars running anyway. How much worse can adding an extra car make the reliability, especially if it's just for a few months and only used during peak hours?
I think the reliability argument is really a poor one. Instead I think that CT just doesn't want the hassle when they can just pretend this option doesn't exist.
