Tracks are much better for the environment and long-term sustainability then roads. Not having to build track shouldn’t be seen as a plus side, but as a compromise that had to be made.
That’s true. If this were america, I’d suspect the tracks would never come, but in China, maybe it is indeed an intermediary step towards light-rail or other non-road based people transport.

It gets cars off the road immediately, so I think that’s the main value. I agree that tracks are a better long term solution.
