Well, public transit does suck. The alternatives just happen to also suck. Waiting on a bus in the rain is a pretty terrible way to spend time. Transferring buses and turning a 45 minute drive into an hour and a half trip is miserable. Driving in stop and go traffic for 45 minutes is also a pretty terrible way to spend time. Having no transit would be even worse than either of these. There really is no transit option in cities that doesn’t suck if you aren’t in easy walking distance of your destination (or maybe easy walking distance on each side of a direct bus/subway). Self-driving cars would be great, but only for those who can afford them. And they still have all the negative externalities of cars.
