The Almost Circle MRT Line

Dearest SMRT

Why do you name a MRT line Circle line when it do not made a full circuit? I was at Harbourfront station one fine afternoon foolishly thinking that I would easily take aforementioned line to Bayfront station within 15 mins. After all, these 2 stations are not very far apart in the map of Singapore. But it was not meant to be. I had to either take the full trip on the Circle line to the west, then up north and down east which would take more than 1 hour. Or I could take the North East line to Dhoby Ghaut station, transit to the Circle line (the irony) to Promenade station, then wait for the train to Bayfront station from there. I truly comprehended the term "so near yet so far" that day.
