No, I don't underestimate it at all. I was up there regularly when I lived in NY. I know full well what the existing trek is like, at all times of day.

If SAS had materialized as a full 4-track route, then your fantasy routing would be doable. The plans were for it to feed both the 6th Ave IND and the Bway BMT, as well as the 2nd Av mainline. Had it been built in the 1970s, there probably would be a "via Chrystie" route running there. Today's realities simply make that neither practical nor desirable.

You are not going to get your fantasy route. The priority is serving the (L) riders, not your downtrodden, forgotten UES yuppies and coupon-clipping dowagers.
