Business class public transit is super underrated imo. I remember taking business class subway in Shenzhen (it cost ~$3 instead of ~$1) and it was a great experience.

If public transit bodies themselves offer it, it could be a large revenue opportunity.

Uber has introduced a shared bus service in India. Riders say the service isn’t necessarily much cheaper or faster than their previous commutes, but is more comfortable and less crowded

I'm curious, we've seen every tech mogul elite from Jobs, Gates, Zuck and Elon go evil once they acquired enough influence. When does Vitalik become evil? It's usually when they desire outcome X (no pun) at all costs?

Some people think that I've been evil since 2016-07-20!

In this context, do you mean the risk of people complaining about even the slightest increase in transit prices?

I feel like that's exactly the thing that business class would route around; people don't mind charging rich people more.

Setting aside past religious holy wars, how do you mitigate extreme price inelasticity from moral impugnance? They seem almost irrevocable, except in very rare instances.
