This experiment just sounds like "what if fraud were not fraud"
Oh, okay ... but everyone having perfect information AND fraud being possible to get away with are fundamentally contradictory assumptions; fraud is based on exploiting some people not having perfect information.
Even if it's relatively easy to not get caught, you can't be sure exactly how easy it is, and the downside is catastrophic. So no, I don't think every entity in your thought experiment would be committing fraud. Only…

This kind of thinking works out if you personally value your time at an hourly rate, and consider the whole commute time as lost and unpaid. For example, say you value your time at ~$50/hr, and the train costs $8/day,…
