Yeah, if you’re in a hurry, take the stairs!

Agree, although asking people standing on moving side to let you through is also an option.

stairs is always the superior option because everyone is always lazy and takes the escalator. on the stairs however you can sprint up AND skip steps bc nobody else is in the way 💯
If I recall correctly, standing on both sides of the escalator reduces the average travel time for everyone since you end up removing the queue nuch quicker. It's sort of like squishing in the extreme ends of quick & slow travel times so that more people travel at the average rate

I don’t agree with him. If people wait at the escalator steps, taking both lanes will still congest it eventually.
Whereas giving way and taking one lane when congested, would in fact make congestion less imminent since others can easily get through.
In busy places, even stairs are congested and more of a mess.
Thus, the side of the escalator becomes a zone to clear out from because it should always be flowing if people don’t block the way.
Additionally, taking both lanes would cause more casualties in the event of an accident.
Furthermore, it is evident that fatal accidents can happen due to crowding in a confined space. Considering escalators can already be dangerous enough on its own, this increases the dangers significantly.
Things gets stuck on escalators. If both lanes were taken, not only would it increase the chances of anything getting caught, but people would also be unable to get out of the way.
Conclusion, he is being a prick and ironically giving way should actually be more helpful with the crowd as well as being considerate.
