Default Paris Metro Map Question

What does it mean on the RATP map when there's a dotted line between
stations (Gare de Lyon to Bercy, for example?)

Must be walking distance as there's no transport between those two close
stations.

arranged some electrons, so they looked like this :

That the dotted portion is being built.

Line 14 goes to both stations; however, I went to the RATP site and this is
what the legend says "correspondance Métro-RER ou Métro-SNCF avec trajet
par la voie publique" so it looks like yo are right Lennart

It means that a connection is possible outside the "controlled area." Put
more simply, you walk out of one station and walk over to the other.

As the legend states, "Correspondance [...] avec trajet par la
voie publique", i.e., it is a "correspondance", meaning you can
transfer between two lines, but instead of simply walking along
some passageways you must actually exit the station, passing
through the exit turnstile, and walk to the other station, where
your ticket will be recognized by the entrance turnstile.

It is not always obvious which way to go when you exit the first
station; in going from Ave Henri Martin to Rue de la Pompe we had
to ask directions of a passerby.
