Strictly speaking true, but not that useful unless you want to go one
stop from Beddington Lane to Therapia Lane.

That's silly. It's like claiming that the northern line isn't that
useful for Merton residents as you can only travel between Colliers
Wood, South Wimbledon, and Mordon.

The benefit that the Northern Line brings to Merton is that enables
some Merton residents to leave Merton; likewise the tram and Sutton.

If you are there and just want to leave the borough of Sutton, crossing
the road would be simpler than catching a tram. All the houses around
Therapia Lane are in Croydon.
