Can anyone explain to me what the consequence is for fare jumping if they don’t do this?

Number one reason is that it pisses people off as it is unfair

Humans, like monkeys, are allergic to unfairness and more people will just jump because they also want free shit

These policing efforts are just there to keep the number of free riders to the expected parameter and placate the paying users

Capturing back lost fares is inconsequential

Public transit should be free.

I agree with the sentiment, but until it is free, it is unfair to not police fair jumpers

As a fare jumper, I completely agree.
