Not sure why you're bringing subways into this, since the Paris Metro wipes the floor with the LA Metro. 16 lines and still growing, not including the even more rapidly expanding modern tram network.

The author actually brought up commuters! I thought the LA Metro bathrooms are more relevant for that use case, so it seems weird that the author ignores those while focusing on bathroom programs for the homeless (not that homeless people don't deserve bathrooms, but the picture they paint of regular every day folks in Paris is not comparable to the skid row bathroom users)

LA Metro has a mere 120 miles of track vs Paris's 150 miles, but in our defense they had a 90 year head start :)
