It's hard to argue everyone's commute will be more convenient with the train. As an example, my father commutes downtown on the 104 right now, which stops at the end of his driveway, and drops him right in front of his building downtown. With the train it'll be a bus then a transfer to the train. It's not more convenient for him, but it's more efficient overall.
That being said, the north central, SE and downtown subway would have all been better uses of money. Yes, I know this line was cheaper, but we could have gotten started on one of those other projects, and the long term benefit would have been greater.
