The currently recommended routes have made Kings Cross impossible for
people for
whom it was previously possible. For some such people, it would be OK if
there were some seats along the way, but we can't have that either.


They've made all the platforms wheel-chair accessible, but in the process
have lengthened the walks. They continue to claim that the design results
in reduced journey times.


Another way of looking at it is that they have altered the passenger flows
early to those wanted in the future for the Western (mainline) ticket hall
when open, when they possibly don't want pax heading for KX mainline or
suburban departures using the tube ticket hall, but going via the northern
ticket hall's escalators?

Just a guess mind...
