The environmental aspect is pretty important! Wouldn't running
bendies generate less polution for the same passenger capacity than
using double-deckers?

Why?

When both are full theres a greater number of passengers per unit mass
of the vehicle on a bendy. Hence more efficient.

That's one aspect, I agree, but not the whole story.

What's the rest of the story?

Too much free travel?
