This isn't "most systems". It's London, and all 6 of the central area
stations on Crossrail (the ones where 24tph are currently planned)
*will* have heavy boarding/alighting flows.


I can well believe that. In central Paris, RER line "A" has 50 second
dwell times (compared to an average of 18 seconds on the métro).
