When I say population growth I mean literally due to more people moving to SF or working downtown, which would not be their fault. Sounds like yours is a case of shifting from public transit to ridesharing, which is definitely due to Uber/Lyft being a better experience at an attractive price.
Perhaps we need to reach a point of inflection like in NYC where taking public transit is faster than navigating congested streets. But as it stands MUNI is often (significantly) slower than a rideshare.
