To have the Q as the full-time Brighton Local made sense in 2004 because the:
1) Brighton Express

and

2) CPW Local from 6th Ave. . .

were both part-time operations so it made sense for those two to be the same service, hence, the B.

The convenience of having one part-time line cover these part-time operations outweighed the concerns of Brighton riders not having easy access to 6th Ave off-hours (anyway, from 7/2001 to 5/2004, such access did not exist at all).

does weekend Brighton ridership warrant two services?

It may have had a chance without the SAS, in that the argument was building that 6 TPH was not enough for the Brighton line weekends. But now it has more than 6 TPH, so the case for adding an express just got weaker.
