The best place to read is on public transportation

Question: Where is the best place to read?
Position1 of 2›: Reading is better in public
Argument‹3 of 3: The best place to read is on public transportation

Whether it comes from a jet engine at 30,00 feet, a bus engine, or subway rails, the rhythmic hum of white noise from public transportation leads to the best reading experiences.

The argument

Reading on public transportation pairs the majesty of travel with the limitless wonder of the written word. It allows the reader to physically travel a town, city, or even an entire country while getting lost in a good book. The constant white noise of the engine coupled with the changing scenery leads to a truly wondrous reading experience that no other stationary reading area can compete with. Reading on public transportation is the best place to read as it introduces the most majesty into an already wondrous book. As an added bonus, it's also twice as productive. You can immerse yourself in your favorite novel and travel at the same time.

Premises

[P1]Reading on public transportation combines physical travel with immersion in a book, letting the reader journey through a town, city, or country while getting lost in the written word. [P2] The engine's constant white noise and the changing scenery create a reading experience no stationary spot can match, and it doubles productivity by letting one read and travel at the same time. [C] The best place to read is on public transportation, which makes reading in public superior.

Counter-arguments

Public transportation can be a great place read, but it can also be very hit-or-miss. A crowded bus or subway with nowhere to sit can quickly dash any hopes of getting lost in a good book.

Rejecting the premises

[Rejecting P1] Travelling while reading is an argument for the convenience of the journey rather than the quality of the reading: attention is divided by stops, transfers and the need to watch for one's destination, so the pairing said to enhance the book is also what interrupts it. [Rejecting P2] Engine noise and passing scenery are presented as universally conducive when they are the conditions that happen to suit this reader, and the productivity claim holds only for time that would otherwise be idle — which says nothing about whether a carriage is a better place to read than a quiet room.
