> trams disrupt car traffic in a way that buses just don't...

I mean that the act of giving trams (or buses for that matter) a segregated lane means that's now roadspace not used for cars. Which is a benefit in my eyes, not a criticism.

Tram or bus exclusive infrastructure forces people to view roadspace differently. Drivers and potential public transport users alike.

Yes, there's the practical impact of less space for cars, but there's the mental impact, with the new arrangement stating positively: "public transport is of at least equal importance to cars. Get used to it".
