An ordinary-day snapshot for Monthly Commute Audit for Chengdu Residents — because that's when plans either work or fall apart.

Morning
Phone battery low, already late for something. If your approach to commute audit needs perfect conditions, it fails here. Keep the version that survives parking shared bikes inside the lines.
Midday
Pin the gate, not the building blob.

Around a rain-soaked exit, the city reminds you that logistics beat inspiration.
Evening
You're tired. That's why defaults matter. Novelty is for weekends with buffer, not for systems you need twice a week.
Still common: Sunday-only commute tests.
What I'd keep

- One transfer max is a lifestyle choice.
- One backup in your district
- A dated note of what you decided and why
Tourists can afford chaos. Residents need defaults — one primary option, one backup, and a note with the Chinese name.
The useful details show up in ordinary weather: rain, overtime, and the week you don't feel like being a high-functioning expat.
Protect your Tuesday-night self. That's who has to live with the plan.
