But that's why it _is_ analagous to separate drinking fountains. A "step up", 
yes, but at 
the same time, it carefully preserves second-class status. Now if _all_ the 
thoroughfares 
had red lights until triggered by approaching traffic, that would at least be 
fair, 
albeit totally impractical.

As to the issue of the angles and the length of the green (from a previous 
message in 
this thread; I've lost track of it), Supv. Matano's reconfiguration addresses 
that, in 
part, by directing more traffic into right-angled intersections.
