If people don't research before travel I wonder why we get so many posts
on here from potential visitors about how tickets work, what trains to
catch, how to use the buses etc etc?


Because this is a self-selected group of people who are interested in
researching fares.

I never cease to be amazed at the majority of people I travel with abroad
just jump into taxis and are aghast at the idea they could work out how to
get a train or bus (even when there's a very obvious point-to-point
service between the airport and their destination).


Are these people that you travel with spending OPM
