The prefictability is really a flaw. Busses can go anywhere with a road. Much more flexible.

I beg to differ. A pedestrian or a cyclist is much more likely to be hit by a bus because buses can go and turn anywhere. Flexibility is an asset outside of cities and high-density areas, but in an urban area public transit on rails is far superior.
