"Then again, letting people see that disruption firsthand would help cement how important transit is."
I think that's optimistic. The effect of the LTC strike seemed to be increased animosity towards the system, and an increased attitude that it could not be relied on. I know that in London at that time, a lot of people took permanent travel decisions (I mean like buying a car) during or soon after the strike.
Fingers crossed that this deal is accepted and we don't need to go through a service disruption.
