Except again, you are overlooking a potentially serious issue with the SAS north of 63rd:

There being no entrances between 72nd and 83rd streets on the SAS given how the stops are there. This is what having the Rockaway-Super Express line run via 79th street (on virtually a straight line from Roosevelt Avenue if what I read is correct) would alieveate a lot of, as again, I suspect such a station would be among the heaviest used in the entire system, at least aside from the CBD stops given the population density in that area (which is also why I would make it a three-track, two-island platform station so that some service can in Manhattan if necessary be short-turned at that point).
