If they were separate stations for trains going in opposite directions, similar to some of the downtown stations like Olympic Plaza, Telus, etc. where the stations are staggered along 7th Ave. it would make a bit more sense, then it is more like 16 blocks between northbound / southbound stops.

Staggered NB/SB stations doesn't really work outside of the core.
Think about it, you park by a station, hop on the train and head downtown. How are you gonna get back to your car?
