No. I can't accept this reasoning now that I think of it. Saying that a subway ride is only $1.67 using the argument of "buy $10 get $12" is no different than saying that Airtrain cost $4 when using the same "buy 10 get 12" discount. It's paradoxal, or a chicken and egg scenario. A subway ride is $2 base, just like an Airtrain base is $5. A subway ride is no more really $1.67 than an Airtrain ride is $4 using the exact same MC. Using the MetroCard $10 to get $12 discount is the same whether you buy airtrain with the MC or the subway.
Think about it, you can use your same argument the other way, using the AirTrain as your base and try and figure out what the savings on a subway really is.
