Genuinely the only real commuter rail in the US outside of NJ Transit Rail and maybe Metra if you're feeling extremely generous. (hexbear.net)

No its far from optimal, its a reasonable axe to grind. Its sad that this is basically the best the US can do, but its also cool to experience the best the US can do compared to how the rest of the country lives. Being near the LIRR means you know far more people who welcome a rail commute into their lives, despite the cost and delays.
