Default Is it too much to expect buses to actually stop at bus stops?

When I was little in Hull, ringing the bell to get off was considered
what would now be called anti-social behaviour. You were supposed to go
and stand by the door waiting to get off (no middle exit).

So, what was the bell for?

Perhaps it was just cheaper to buy a bus with one than have it taken
out/disabled?
