Personally, I think that rapid transit to LGA is overkill

How so? For an airport that handles 23 million pax per year, having no rail service is a travesty. (Lambert-St. Louis airport handles significantly fewer passengers, yet has two light rail lines going right to its terminals.)

if you really want to provide a decent service, create an LIRR spur from SHEA to LGA; alternatively, in the event that the City's newest Queens crush actually sees development, branch the Flushing Line, although I'm much more iffy on this, because of the burgeoning development in Flushing and the relatively easy fix with the money that would be blown on an LGA extension of a proper northern Flushing Line terminal

Both are reverse spurs and would slow down travel.
