I'm suggesting that the map could show the Crossrail station as

Well, it doesn't yet, and it may be a while before it does. It would
probably be wrong to show the link as an interchange, anyway, as it's much
further than the actual interchange at Canary Wharf. Just because a route's
walkable doesn't make it an interchange.

Archway to Upper Holloway is shown as an interchange (or outerchange) on
the latest tube map, and that's further than the circuitous walk route
available now from Poplar to Crossrail, and much longer than the future
directish route.


Yes, but that's the best available link between the Northern line and the
GOBLIN. It's not good, but it's better than nothing. The situation at
Canary Wharf is entirely different, as there's already a good interchange
between the DLR and Crossrail. Why confuse the situation and clutter up the
map showing a less good walking route? By that logic, you could add dozens
of second-best links between already well-connected lines to really ruin
the increasingly busy map.
