The cars ordered for ION have been in use in LRTs, trams and commuter trains around the world for many years. I'd urge the "experts" to ask those transit operators about these sorts of details, e.g. what they like and what they wish they could change, long before I'd want our local "experts" to design a "better" mouse-traphuman car just to be different or just to flex their creative muscles.
