I don't know what this guy is talking about. Subway in NYC has some annoyances but works pretty well most of the time.

It is quite slow compared to other cities with metro I visited. I think mainly due to too many stops. On some parts I got impression than metro platforms take more than 30% of the line fragment which is ridiculous.

Yeah it can depend. Especially on weekends. Sometimes it just makes sense to take get a ride.

One city, and it's not even that good.

Shout out, never seen a +13 flagged into oblivion, I'll take that as a compliment.
