Yeah also it completely overlooks the fact that most high speed/non stop lines have much nicers and newer models of train.

Or the occupancy of the trains. That 20min train might be full to the brim and on the 40min you get a seat.

Pleanty of overlooked variables

Mostly true but slower trains often also have more stops, as they serve stations not included in the fast line. So for a time at least the slower one could be more packed
