most people don't use the tube for short journeys anyway


That's the end of the Waterloo and City, and its 9+ million passengers a
year, then.


Which is less than 1% of the billion in total who used the system last year.
Which part of the word "most" is confusing you?

Not to mention all of the other short hops of a few stations on the tube
that commuters make daily to get between mainline terminals and their
work.


Still a tiny percentage compared to the number who commute in from the
suburbs on the tube.
