That route is convoluted already; also, it runs weekdays only until 7pm. Not an ideal route to serve shopping centers, and it likely wouldn't have much ridership given the area it already runs.

The bottom line is that the long-term lack of transit options south of Richmond Ave has made the area incredibly car-centric, and increasing transit options that don't serve places outside that area (i.e. don't go to the Ferry or Manhattan) wouldn't have a significant impact on ridership.
