I'm OK with the Highland to Victoria routing. The rationale that I was given makes sense: Victoria south just doesn't have the destinations that Highland does.
It's a little like when the 202 went in. It was the "University express" but it didn't stay on University. Instead, it turned at Erb and followed that out. Again, that was the more useful corridor.
I could see the argument changing in a decade or two, if Victoria fills in, if ridership grows and there's demand for frequent bus service along both Highland and Victoria south. It would make for a more legible network to have a pure cross-town Victoria route, to be sure.
