Why wasn't there a MARTA station at County Stadium to begin with?

The original plans for MARTA in the early 1970s called for a rail line to SE Atlanta which would've included a stop at AFCS. However, the station was axed because the Braves/Fulton County didn't want to lose parking revenue, and the rail line was axed because projected ridership for the line was minimal compared to the lines that were actually necessary for operation (today's existing MARTA North/South Line)
