I misunderstood what you said about the central location of a train station being downtown, inferring that you meant it was handy because you could just walk to downtown instead of be at an airport 30 miles outside of it.
Edit: Also I want to say I do have a boomer impression of train stations - I cant think of one that gives me the feeling of security I get at airports (especially internationally). So maybe you're a zoomer and you're more comfortable with your work saying, "take the train downtown" because them's quitting words in my day. To me that means, walk out of a pair of doors onto the street in the center of a major metropolitan city. If it's not that, then that's new to me.
That doesn't make me disingenuous and it doesn't mean everything that comes out of my mouth is garbage (which somehow means I'm not garbage but my insides are?) and that Im a liar.
Now by all means, add on whatever fee's you want to make my number a garbage disingenuous lie and you can win.
edit edit: I also have flown into japan a couple of times and the first time I got from my airplane to downtown Tokyo with no guide via train and my memories of that are nightmares. Sheer nightmares. Like just a maze of fast paced machines, moving in and out of tunnels, and people speed walking shoulder to shoulder like blood cells with no emotion. Transfers to different lines, signs everywhere with scribbles all over them. No way. It was hell on earth. And that's japan, the like mecha of trains. Im still calling bull$hit on trains > planes.
