Air conditioning on bendy-buses? Have I missed something?!

The SEATING capacity on a bendy-bus is less than on a Routemaster and
it weighs almost twice as much. Not a particularly efficient use of
energy, methinks!

What about the muscle-spasm or knocked heads that are inevitably
experienced when bendies go over bumps or around corners?

More to the point, has the 38 as many bendy-buses on it as it had
Routemasters? The 73's frequency is a shadow of it's former RM self.
