The Marc is plenty reliable for a daily commute and many do it. I did it for 4 years to DC and my fiancée for 2 years until Covid necessitated a change to remote work.

I think by “a bad substitute for a 15 minute drive” they mean that if you’re that close, then the Marc seems to make less sense on account of being held captive by schedules, getting to the station, and everything in between.

I second this. MARC is the way if you're going any distance. I loved my train commute.
