AIUI the Jubilee line doesn't use CX for day to day operational

I've seen Green Park reversers go that way regularly after emptying. It's
uncanny how straight the tunnel is from Green Park, unlike the EJL which
turns off the old route almost on the platform ends.
I still don't really understand why they didn't keep CX open for peak
hour
or occasional trains so instead of reversing at green park the train
and
passengers just continue to CX. After all , apart from not having to
clean the platforms so often wheres the gain in closing them? I know
theres always the alternative routes argument but you could use that
argument for any number of central london stations but I don't see a
rush to close them too.
