Instead of slow elevators...
Just have a vertical loop, with a full-gravity pause at the top. Anyone wanting out at a particular 'Musk bus stop' merely unbuckles their seatbelt and tumbles out the open roof into a big net. This approach would save a great deal of time compared to elevators.
(Yes I know it's silly. But it's no sillier than the original concept.)
