I think some of the recalcitrance came from there being very little between Arbutus and UBC, so customers served per kilometre wasn't high, that the vast majority of traffic served by the 99 B-Line went away after that point.

New developments in Point Grey could very much change that equation, plus, a new city council means a fresh look at the question every so often.

I am hopeful.

It sounds like it'll be a really nice place to retire when it's built in 20 years. :P

Haha indeed! I too, am pretty hopeful for this project to finally finish.
