There’s also just things like marketing. A “luxury motor coach” from the airport treated as a flight markets better than heading to the bus terminal down town. (I’m not saying the product actually is better coming from the airport vs a bus station, but I would bet heavily it is treated that way in aggregate by AC customers).
There are logistics things like a bus from the airport east of the city has less traffic issues from the city and has lots of routes around anything that does develop.
There are likely a set of computer system issues resolved by treating the departure point as an airport rather than creating a “fake” airport somewhere else.
That’s just off the top of my head. I guarantee there are dozens of other important factors I don’t know about because I’m not part of the team working on this.
