Default London Overground Expansion

Just a bit furious as to why they won't extend the London Overground to
Streatham- especially when no new track needs to be built. Crystal
Palace to Clapham Junction would join up Balham, Wandsworth and
Streatham Hill/Common and all would be well with the world.

Thoughts?

There was once a plan to link the East London Railway (as was) with
the Lea Valley Line somewhere between Bethnal Green and Cambridge
Heath.

Also it would have been nice if there were platforms reinstated on the
mainline (maybe Lea Valley tracks only) almost directly beneath
Shoreditch High Street, as the ELL has no interchange with the Central
line or with National Express.
