Despite all the disadvantages of the 7th Avenue transit mall, it still has enough capacity to handle more than 300K trips per day, double Edmonton.
And I think the recent news release after the meeting makes it clear that building the full tunnel as initially envisioned will take so much money that the project will not have enough left to also reach Shepard.

Based on our analysis and what we’ve heard we will be continuing to evaluate how to build the Green Line through the Downtown and Beltline. This means we will be investigating ways to shorten the tunnel and bring as much to surface as possible.
