The best part is, the buses now have more dead mileage than they had before and it hasn't reduced buses through the city by that much, difference is now most of them are doing it not in service rather than in service.

Exactly. I am somewhat biased but I would like to think that Andy Burnham and his staff will have a far more measured and pragmatic approach as to where buses can operate (and park) within Manchester city centre than those who are currently responsible for connectivity in Liverpool who seem to have a very anti-bus mindset.
