That's not how people or transportation works.
If it's not quality, then nobody will ride it unless they have to. That's why there's a litany of LRTs in the US with — levels of ridership, and why Broadway carries more riders on buses than most LRT lines do.

people want to be moved by transit. for their commutes and chore-doing, they don't care about "ooo rails, i like trains" they care about "i want to get their fast to get my stuff done." it is mass transit; it isn't a place people choose to spend their time for longer then they have to.
