Ah, got side tracked. Yeah, I'm with you (somewhat) on 9th.
As for commute times, it's not punishment, it's just facts. I don't want to cut out an entire station for an additional four-six-eight minutes at the end of the line. More stations mean more access elsewhere for everyone, it shouldn't be commuter focused.
Live downtown, want to go see a movie, Lego Batman at Landmark in Country Hills. 36 minutes from the last stop downtown on the 301. Safe to say the greenline will beat that? Even with all the current planned stops? The train alone will save people time.
Shaving off entire stations (the small ones like GGG mentioned) to shave off a handful of minutes from the further out users make zero sense IMO.
