I didn't say it was popular just that it is a very cheap option to free up capacity at Euston. The government seems to be happy to support Crossrail 2 as long as London pays for half of it up front and half from opperating surpless. I suspect the government will look at alternatives if it thinks it will need grants and not loans.
They could start by not allowing the Open Access application to Blackpool to waste a platform once an hour.
