Why is this whole sub just rage baiting New Yorkers now?

I’m all for more subways, however trams are worse than busses in almost every way other than aesthetics. Spending probably trillions of dollars to make public transportation worse would not make sense. Really we should work on improving the existing infrastructure and reducing traffic.
Edit: I’m probably over stating how great buses are here, trams are cool too, I just don’t see it being worth it.
