Re: Why are the Q and B local/express swapped Brooklyn/Manhattan?

Not a big deal - I just don't know what he's talking about.

I really think you do.

It's quite clear he meant 8/50, 8/23, 6/23, 6/14, and Spring Street. Since the 6th Avenue express tracks didn't open until the 1960s, that means there used to be three and are now five; that is also consistent with his commentary on the IND being built with inspiration from commuter systems where both locals and expresses make nearly all stops within the central business district(s) themselves.

If you really feel the need to whine about the technical imprecision of the term "midtown," you can do that in a single sentence rather than pretend you can't understand the entire post because of that one word.
