Let me put this logically to you. If the PVR was increased this would mean an extra bus or two on the route, making it more difficult when the depot is short. It also means changing duties, having extra drivers and more money spent on fuel. Don't forget the 411 & 409 are often late due to the four bridges being up for a passing boat. I don't see the point in wasting resources when a half hourly service is fine. This is would mean a bus every 15 minutes and it would effect the 409 service. Don't forget, many 411 users either want Seacombe served by the 409, or New Brighton, with the serve.
