Light rail is inexpensive compared to heavy rail, you have a document sitting in front of you stating it

Just because something's "documented" doesn't make it factual. Look at HBLRT and its costs reaching into the billions right now—those costs would never have been accumulated if that line was built as a Hoboken-Bayonne commuter rail service, even an electrified one. Even further, look at the Trenton-Camden "River Line".

They don't have the space to store the added North Shore branch line trains at Clifton depot or Tottenville yard

Now that's "pure opinion". And have you forgotten about the existing Howland Hook yard?
