I think it's more: we have one of the most successful LRT systems on the continent, so we can afford to make it worse indefinitely in order to wait and see if another line is successful enough to improve the previously super successful part.



It's a weird decision making matrix. If the Green Line is 'much, much more successful than predicted' then we can build the tunnel instead of extending the line. But if the line isn't successful then you can extend it instead of the tunnel.
