You can change this request in "Wait till loaded x%" to make the feature more flexible.

why this feature?
To become tycoon you must transport cargo, more is better. Why not use the available capacity?

Reducing the number of wagons is a much more logic solution, isn't it?

There are reasons not to use all available capacity.
Example: Train line connecting Small city providing let's say 500 passengers a month and a Big city with 2000 passengers a month with no other connections. Obviously we cannot have Full load on both ends, because we would end in carrying 500 pax from Small and not having capacity to transfer all 2000 pax back from Big to Small.
Currently there is best solution to have Full load only in Big, but it have one disadvantage. Imagine three trains arriving to Small, one not very long after the previous. All of them will spend the same time unloading their full load from Big. But first one will spend some time to load full load of accumulated pax in Small. Second will need less time to load only the remaining pax and third will leave empty immediately. This will even more shorten the gaps between trains and enhance this effect for the future.
Solving this using timetabling is not always simple or even possible, but "Load 25 %" order in Small would solve it nicely.
