Unless you think the LA pays for every bus ticket individually.

They do in this area - You "buy" a zero-value ticket for each journey
and the pass card is read by a contact sensor on the ticket machine.

Bureaucracy gone mad.

Not really. It's the easiest way to keep the bus company honest and let
the council know just how popular the passes are.

It's no more bureaucratic than insisting that every paying passenger
must have a valid ticket. That's to make sure the drivers and passengers
are honest.
