More trains and less delays will ease congestion, making this worth
the effort, I think. And there is quite a good chance you will get
a seat when changing at Camden Town, since a lot of other people
will be getting off and changing for the other line, too.

If you arrive at Camden Town on a crush loaded train do you really
think you will be able to change to a train that is not crush
loaded? So if you had a seat before you won't in future in the peak
hour.

That is a bizarre thing to say about a plan to increase the number
of seats per hour.

The people who work at Kings Cross and go home to Edgware will have
a seat after Camden, whereas now they have to stand most of the way
home.

Are you seriously saying that the increase in seats per hour will mean
that there is no standing?

I said no such thing, seriously or flippantly.

I accept that it will be reduced but
eliminated altogether? Hardly.
