It’s just a small thing. The escalators don’t run continuously. They start running as you approach them.

We have those in Europe as well, not Hyper commin, but still

We even have those in Brazil. Not everywhere, I reckon most are older than those but I’ve seen them in some malls and airports at least.

We have escalators that don't stop in Europe? I didn't even know those existed.
