With the wonders of live tracking, I can get to the stop 30 seconds before the bus arrives with basically no risk
That's not always the case though. It just takes a breakdown, the bus running a couple of minutes early between timing points, an accident down the road etc. to make you have to stand there until the next bus arrives. Equally, not everyone lives next to a bus stop. My closest stop when I'm down here is a 15 minute walk away, so that's 30 minutes of walking in both directions.
