Incorrect.
There are a number of reasons for exterminating bus laybys, from
widening a former narrow part of the pavement, through allowing the
driver to pull away as soon as everyone is off/on to making sure bus
and bus boarder align in order to make life easier for everyone but
particularly those with mobility problems. Any traffic calming
effect is just a bonus.
