Even if you are correct, Meaningless comparison considering that J service hasn't run even 20 tph for a very long time.
It isnt a meaningless comparison. However nice it would be to have such service, nobody is suggesting to run 20TPH on the J, 13 TPH on the J, might be useful though, as trains are currently quite crowded at 12 TPH, but 13 TPH CANNOT be handled by the current terminal!

That's not only false, it's laughably silly. Queens Blvd. capacity globally is higher due to the 63rd St tunnel project, whereas east of 71-Continental it's basically the same, except that trains can now be distributed to two branches.
No ron, it isnt. 63rd did not change queens boulevard capacity whatsoever. 63rd made the existing capacity on the local tracks more useful, but the same amount of trains can be run as before. Provided 179 can handle 30 TPH(It has in the past IIRC) 179 could handle it all. (Assuming, as you brought up, that the locals dont extent past roosevelt. )
