But in NYC, an advisory group suggested that recently, and people hated the idea. The problem is traffic can be heavy even after hours, especially on the weekends, so buses would be a lot slower. Lots of people rely on the subway at all hours of the night.

Anyone that can tends to avoid (e.g. prefers to live off the red/blue line) the lines that do not operate 24x7. Not providing universal service means you lose peak time ridership as well, as witnessed by ridership numbers on those lines.
