Why does the North Kent Line currently route most trains through
Woolwich from London Bridge via Lewisham and not via Greenwich, which
is surely a much more direct route?


It doesn't. There are 6tph via Greenwich and only 2tph via Lewisham.

Ok. But if that's the case, why do all the main route utilisation
strategies and the latest study for possible Bakerloo extensions
(carried out on behalf of Lewisham council) treat it like its a minor
branch with the main route from Woolwich etc. being the one that goes
via Lewisham?


*ALL* the main route utilisation strategies? Please provide references
to the three or more RUSs that relate to this route. As for some study
carried out on behalf of Lewisham council, isn't it obvious why they
should want to focus on the route via Lewisham?
