The LVCC so far is more expensive, slower to build, has had more disruptions, needs huge stations, is only one-way, and has terrible privacy (you're stuck with a stranger in the small space of a car instead of a the large space of a subway car). It's worse than a subway in every possible way. And it will always be worse than a subway in every possible way, because cars are an extremely inefficient way of carrying people around. You can make a train with more private space per passenger than a car and still fit way more people in one than in the equivalent amount of car. There will never be a way to make cars as economical as trains, for very very very basic geometric reasons.
