The fellow's main point was that our current DD layout is
inefficient and archaic. Which many of you also said before
what.......
If anything, all that article serves to remind me was that my
low opinion of sgforums was probably too high still. And asiaone
was trying to get you guys to read by using such a lousy title, and
you guys actually bought everything WITHOUT asking to read the
ORIGINAL paper by Prof. Lee. Except one.

but SMRT and SBST only go for 12m DD
if you have double staircases and 3rd doors, then capacity wise
Bendies > DD.
but then you look at the trunks which needs DDs are having small
turnovers (SBST). svcs like 67 and 960 have a pattern like a
feeder, i.e. loading going from full to nearly empty and
vice-versa. 851 and 857 have single directional high loadings as
compared to 147 and 174 which has bi-directional high loadings.
services like 27, 36 and 858 have high loading but are restricted
to SD/rigid and bendies, 27A and 858A plies the most used areas of
the respective services but are given SDs at very high frequencies.
why should 27A not given DDs and 858A not given bendies, simply
because 27 and 858 are all SD/Rigids?
