Some Oxford buses tell you to remain in your seat until the bus reaches its

complained to them about their vehicles not having bells within easy reach,
they blame the manufacturers, as though despite being one of the Big Five
bus operators in the country and purchasing their vehicles from new, they
have no say over bus design.

They probably don't. These things are decided by accountants, not
drivers or engineers who actually have to *use* the things. As for
passengers, they don't even enter the consciousness of those who make
these decisions.

Once upon a time, even accountants used buses.
