Veterans Day Metro Schedule Changes

Veterans Day is Tuesday, which means federal workers have the day off and transit schedules will be different. WMATA says that Metro will be operating on a modified Saturday schedule tomorrow; that means the system will open at the regular 5 a.m. time, but peak travel times will operate on a non-peak basis. In other words, budget a little extra time on your way in to work tomorrow, since there will be fewer trains running than normal. Other changes for Tuesday include that off-peak fares will be in effect all day and parking at all Metro lots will be free. Metrobus and MetroAccess will operate on a normal, non-holiday schedule.

Why of why can't Metro understand that normal rush hour service is not needed (as they tried a few years ago), but that normal Saturday service is not sufficient?

Why can't they add more trains during normal rush hour times? Why can't they run, 8-10 minutes headways instead of the rush hour 6 or Saturday 12+?
