"In this case, it comes out to only 24 TPH"

And in fact the SDEIS for the 2nd Ave subway says the actual max is 25 tph.

My observations really only say that the max is at most 28 tph, not that 28 tph is achievable. What prevented a rate of 28 tph during those 25 minutes were (a) a few gaps where the next train wasn't in position to roll into 14th as the previous one was leaving and (b) two T/Os who didn't aggressively move into 14th even though they were in position.
