You're a new visitor.
Imagine you arrive at (imaginary) Republic of Elbownia as a university exchange student, at their prestigious Kneecap University.
You see "BOOT" logos all over the place (their subway network) and you also see "BURP" logos (their commuter network), but they don't interchange well, and the signage is confusing. You'll quickly learn which is which, but you end up having a bad impression and continued difficulties over the year or two due to poor wayfinding at interchange stations. You may end up sticking to the BOOT subway network, never using the BURP rapid transit commuter network even though it may be sometimes a faster way from point A to B.
It's like you've never seen a TTC/GO logo before; "BOOT" is "TTC" and "BURP" is "GO".
About damn time.
There is this new thing... it's called the internet. I have used it a before travelling to Bangkok, Singapore, Seoul, Dubai, Tehran etc etc. to plan how I will navigate around town.
I suspect it might catch on and other will do the same before visiting here.
On a more serious note... I get your point and there is always room for improving things. However, I suspect that the current sign will work just fine.
