Default Why is the northern line still so lousy?

AFAIK its all ATO now, so why are there still 3 min service gaps (at least
on the Bank branch) with trains chugging along at what can't be much more
than 20mph? Is there a capacity limit with camden town junction or are there
simply not enough trains for a victoria line 1 min gap service?

Part of the cause of this is that Bank itself is so busy that you
simply can't dispatch a train every minute.
