But, of course, if you stop for 15 minutes to listen to a busker at
the beginning or in the middle of your trip, you've eaten away your
cushion, and if you subsequently encounter a delay, you will be late.

I always have to allow plenty of time to make sure I arrive on time.
A trip that under ideal circumstances takes 45 minutes I must allow
an hour for, just in case there are delays. That means that very
often, I'm not on a really tight schedule.
This is often magnified during rush hour, because with more people in
the system, there are more chances for things to go wrong.
Maybe DC has solved that problem, so people are able to time their
trips extremely closely, and never have any extra time because the
train ran on a quick schedule.
