As I don't purchase return tickets and I instead buy day tickets (whether it's a Nexus CAT or Get Around), having a "turn up and go" frequency on both the 2A/2C and X1 is massively beneficial to me. It allows me to have greater flexibility when travelling. If I miss my X2, I have to wait 30 minutes for the next bus... 10 mins vs 30 mins..? Which sounds more appealing to you?
The X2 would be advantageous to me also as I'd have a direct service from A-B rather than a possible wait in The Galleries as the night progresses, but through the day, the 2A/2C and X1 is certainly the best option for me.
Must admit, the X2 is a rather pointless idea, and it will never happen!
