IIRC, there was also at one point talk of extending the DLR westwards

Westwards? From Stratford International?

Extending from Bank to Farringdon and Euston was a fairly sensible
proposal connected with HS2... I think that proposal is dead now. I
don't think they ever suggested taking over the DC line to Queens Park
and dedicating Queens Park - Watford Junction to the Bakerloo Line,
although that would surely have made more sense than having trains from
the northwest and southeast terminating at Euston.
