Add information and discussion around hours table #6

Reviewer 2:

This article aims to be very practice-ready, i.e., persuading practitioners to convert to activity based approaches, but the details of that conversion are somewhat limited. I wonder if a practitioner would be able to extract the lessons needed to make the shift (though table 4 is quite helpful). In a revision, I suggest diving a little deeper into the decision-making process of the modeler, focusing on questions that she/he needs to decide to transition to activity models.

Reviewer 1:

The Transit scenario creation estimated time is not done correctly. The skims from WFRC are used in the ActivitySim so the time should be included in both. It is not sufficient to mention this in the text, but report it in the table as if they are independent.

I think we should drop the first three lines of this table, and either eat the hours, or distribute some of the hours in a different place.
