Which would slow down boarding and alighting. That isn't the point.

I think it works poorly on Amsterdam trams, and a better investment
would be additional inspectors. Increase the penalty fare if it is
necessary to pay for them.


Not sure. My experience of Amsterdam trams, and Amsterdam transport in
general, is quite positive. Relatively well enforced as people have to
board through the front, apart from days when Ajax are playing at home when
there's a kind of amnesty and it's free for everyone.
