Sometimes, it's necessary to include 2 stops that have at least one line in common.

SAy we have 2 lines, A and B. The closest stop, X, only serves A. Another stop, Y, serves A and B.

We want to show the times for X, since the user will walk to X if they want A, but we also need Y to include line B.

The screen should accommodate showing A at X and B at Y but suppressing A at Y as well since we don't need to show the same line twice. We could do this 2 ways:

1. Let the user manually mark that Y should omit A.
2. If we show a prediction for one line and have another prediction that's a higher number of minutes for the same line, don't show that.
