I never heard that round trips were condoned. They have always been discouraged. That's why you can't take a bus and get a transfer to the same bus in the reverse direction. Other round trips aren't specifically prohibited because it is impossible to define "round trip" if your start and end points are a block or two apart. The reason for the few exceptions is because that is where the MTA would lose the greatest amount of revenue. The amount of programming required to prevent round trips everywhere is probably not worth the expense for the number of people who would make round trips. |
