It's far too early to say that a Sarcee/Bow interchange is unneccessary. It's more likely that induced demand will take that intersection well over failure soon enough, so making sure they have a plan in place for when it's needed is a good idea.
Heh, looks like the whole strip is up for sale...maybe hoping for a buyer who does zero due dilligence?

I don't know if I ever responded to your second point, but IMO the demand for Sarcee traffic can be easily managed if the city so chooses (reduce speed limit, add signalled ped crossings on either side of Bow Tr). It could still be an effective arterial, but absolute vehicle efficiency need not be the sole objective with bigger freeways running parallel roughly 4km on either side
