Interesting - a change to the German system where the default is to
stop, unless there is no intending passenger or (unofficially) the
passenger waves the bus past.

This is a far more friendly system, though it can be a bit wasteful if
a lot of routes serve one stop (though the best solution to that is to
change things so a lot of routes no longer serve one stop).
