No I haven't.  See my other reply about CityRail's stats and how you can
easily convince me I'm wrong.

You defended it numerous times as well.  Your lame estimate/claim/guess and
initial stubborn defence of it diminishes the value of your opinion because
you don't try hard enough to be objective.

And that's better how?  The front of an 8 car train is a very poor vantage
point to count people leaving a train when many are boarding (4 cars is
somewhat better).  Much better to be nearer the middle of the platform and
have nothing else to focus on such drining your train.
