Totally agree. I certainly hope that would be faster than iXpress -- hopefully they can monitor real-world timing after the trains start running and tweak the schedule accordingly.
And regarding the <= 10 minute headways -- excellent point, but you still want the trains running on a sensible schedule to avoid trains bunching up.
