Comment on how do they decide where to put bus stops?

Yeah, actually some companies like IKEA which often are located “on the outskirts” even pay for lines from train stations to their shops - which are for public use and often it’s a mixed deal, like the company (or sometimes a few companies, sometimes even competitors) subsidies the line during business hours and the local government pays the remaining hours.
