Have you been taking statistics lessons from Tony Polson? The first
statement doesn't suggest the second at all.

In any case, I am no great fan of orbital routes diverting services
away from already overcrowded radial routes (see my rantings about the
ELL), I was just fairly flippantly suggesting that Wandsworth Road
would be a better route if people really need to get from Hampton
Court to Dartford.

It's far more likely that they want to go to Waterloo, but they'll
always be able to do that.
