Very low seating capacity for two levels indeed.

So you complain that the trains have very few seats, but having more seats would reduce the on-board capacity of the trains which would require either more cars, tracks, more lines, and/or more trains in order to deal with the levels of ridership, yet you complain that SNCF "drains the public coffers"? When an American agency moves what SNCF & RATP does on the RER A at 90 second headways, maybe their opinions will be valid, but until then, the French have far more experience on moving riders than we do.
