> Destination Dispatch [...] are in general worse

I wonder if this is an artifact of how the author used random destinations. I worked in a building that used Destination Dispatch, and the common travel pattern seemed to be:

- Everyone who is not on the ground floor generally want to go to the ground floor.

- People who are on the ground floor generally travel in large groups to the same destination.

This happens because people who worked on the same floor often leave for lunch at the same time, and return at the same time to the same floor. Destination Dispatch helps in this case because it's batching large groups of people with the same destination.
