1. CBTC offers capacity that NYCT cannot achieve with fixed block signalling.

A moving block system does not require CBTC and CBTC can be implemented on fixed block systems too.

2. CBTC is cheaper than fixed block systems with wayside signalling.

The only thing that will be cheaper for sure is the cost of parts/equipment needed for maintenance.
