Then it should close at night. Pretty much every city with a subway system worth bragging about does.
It always seemed strange to me that Philly is the only city I've been to that fully replaces the subway at night with buses.

No, it shouldn't, and I take it by this statement you don't live in NYC. I do, and have lived in Tokyo and other cities with excellent mass transit. While Tokyo's system is much, much better, it's pretty fantastic that I know I can always get a train home no matter what time it is, no matter where in the city I am, much faster than any ground vehicle would take me.
This is a decent compromise.
