I've read that South Quay station was "moved" recently (OK, not
actually moved, but replaced, but you know what I mean).

It was done because the
reverse curves on the track prevented the original platforms
being extended for three-car units.

Why didn't they plan for this when they built it the first time?

Ho, ho! Look at the history of the DLR!
