For comparison Paris métro or London underground ridership just count passengers entering in the network. Passengers transferring lines are not counted twice.
The real ridership of New York subway in 2024 was 1,195 million in 2024 when using using the same calculus method.

No. Your own link shows NYC subway had nearly 4 million paid riders in 2024. These are unique trips, and not double counting for transfers, like in the APTA numbers. Also not including free riders like employees, schoolchildren and obviously those evading fares.
