And as to quality of life, watch the video that I posted. According to the Amtrak website, the dimensions of each roomette are 3’6’ X 6’6.
Pigs in California are supposed to have 24 square feet.

People may differ on their definition of quality of life but I would rather have the freedom of driving and staying in a hotel rather than staying in a room that small.
Factor in the stress of 12 + hrs driving I95, likelyhood of sitting for an hour or two while they are clearing accidents.

Even the semi drivers are aggressive and rude now days making that drive more than miserable.

Pick your poison...
