Maybe IE havn't been aware of the system in the RER in Paris, developed in the '70s, with cross platform interchange[1]. comparing Ireland's new 350m interchanges with Le Metropolitan from 2 centuries ago while ignoring what happened 30 years ago in the same cities....
Maybe they're ignorant or maybe they're stupid or maybe they're trying to con us.
