Default Subway (New York) vs Underground (London) [Quite long]

In fact, there are a few underground stations in Hamburg which appear to
be totally unstaffed - bet you'd not get away with that in the UK!

A few?
I'd say more than 95% of stations are completely free of any staff.
There's just one station with full-time platform staff (Hauptbahnhof
S-Bahn platforms) left, i think.
Some have ticket counters that are open on the last and first days of a
month (season tickets...).
