Default International lollipops (was: London v Paris)

Connecting with another thread here about "lollipop" bus routes, this
reminds me that ACTV in Venice have, in probably a majority of cases,
vaporetto services in both directions from the same stop - to the
perpetual confusion of many tourists.


In Gent, Belgium, one of the tram routes does a large lollipop. It's
very confusing on the maps, since they don't have any Beck-style
diagrams for the tram network -- just street maps with tram and buss
routes superimposed on them.
