The Genius of SMRT

Here is an example of why you need to think.

Long time ago, there used to be a drawing that showed how long it took to travel from one station to another by Singapore's MRT.

This is how it looks like:


And there is a newer version, which looks like this one below:


Using both maps, tell me how long do I need to go from Bukit Gombak to Woodlands? Now you know that the newer version simply serves no purpose whatsoever to help people other than the fact that the timing seems to be updated and more current.

That, is the genius of non thinking.

The original document is still available on here though I can't find it linked from anywhere in the site. And there is a fancier, overkill one from TransitLink.
