I was under the impression that they wanted to replace the 72ts and
73ts at the same time as they are approximately the same age.

The remaining 72TS (on the Bakerloo) is going (AIUI) to live on long
past the 73TS, despite the latter being more than just newer. It is the
first Westcode braked stock.

I see. I'm not clear on something, however: are there plans to
completely automate the line and have trains operate in UTO mode?

Which line? I'm sure ATO is planned for all lines eventually.

Piccadilly. I don't mean ATO, which I think is obvious, but UTO --
unattended train operation. Such as that in Paris, Lille, Toulouse,
Renne, Copenhagen and Brescia.
