Because it is.

The breakdowns Mirau spoke of are far too frequent to be acceptable.

When I rode the New York subway 2x every day in 2004 for a few months, including some weekends, I did not experience a single breakdown. I experienced one delay on the Lex IRT due to a sick passenger (I helped a police officer wrestle a "post-ictal" (combative, confused man after a seizure) patient to a bench and then strapped him onto a stretcher; the train was then released to continue). But that was it.

Metrorail has an operational problem, and it will only get worse as the system ages and expansions are built.
