The Jubilee would have been better continuing from North Greenwich to

Provision has been made for this: there are junctions at the north end
of North Greenwich station, though without track on the east-facing
arms. It should be possible to build a branch that way without
disrupting the existing service during most of construction.

However, I suspect the demand for service to/from Stratford means you
couldn't afford to divert 1/2 or 1/3 of the trains elsewhere.
