RailFans don't miss their train. Why? Because they go to the station HOURS before the actual departure of their Train - to watch OTHER trains depart. - Prince Maan

Exactly, people with no idea of preference comment about needs of others. Generalising everything.
I have some Official Work in Sri Ganganagar on 3rd April, planning on going there on 2nd Night.
Now the entire train is mostly empty enough with even Sleeper showing 90+ Availability (Quite the impossible dream for Eastern States 😂). But here we have WL in AC First.
Now I'll...

go with 2A here since I'm mostly assured of getting alloted Upper Berth when my Ticket clears in 1A. 2A has ample availability to get my Choice and some sort of Peace of possible.
People only Generalise 1A with Politicians and VVIP's. I'm NOT either. There are Tourists, Families etc wanting to travel in Privacy and Peace.
As you very well said, 2A nowadays is the new 3A.
But according to some people here I should look for Airport in Sri Ganganagar or go by Car (which belongs to my Father, I only have Meteor 350 Bike). So should people creating Waiting List here 😂
Since according to their perspective, 1A should be scrapped.
Now I'd never even see the face of Sleeper or 3A willingly. I've never travelled in Garib Rath Trains or Humsafar Trains till now for same reason. But If I tell people to scrap Sleeper, just because it's proven to be loss making plus I don't care about it then it'd lead to............. 😂 You can very well imagine.
