If the assumption was that you couldn't do this stuff on the Ctrain or in the stations because CPS would be all over you in minutes it might at least make transit seem less scary to people. I've heard from a ton of people over the last year who won't ride the c train anymore.

I agree with this. We as a society have spent billions and billions of dollars building electrified mass transit infrastructure. There is absolutely no reason to dedicate that to being our safe consumption site. And you can't have it both ways - if there are constantly addicts using the space a huge percentage of regular people won't use it. No matter how safe Wormius feels around people doing meth that isn't going to be a consensus opinion any time soon.
