Are you perhaps suggesting installing RFID scanners on trains so they know exactly how far they are from the platform, and then giving each train a config file so it knows it's individual braking distance at a particular speed, and then doing a single mathematical operation at runtime?

8 billion dollars and 12 years or it's a no go I'm afraid, we simply don't have the tech yet /s
