From reading I'm suprised passenger numbers for the station are relatively
high.

Airport workers (overall, there's almost one for each passenger-per-day
through the airport).

You mean they get the Underground for one stop? Hardly worth it is it?

As I point out in my other post, there isn't any way of easily walking
to the central Heathrow complex from Hatton Cross. Look at a street
map...

...and you'll see that a pedestrian would have to walk north along
Eastchurch Road, west along the Northern Perimeter Road then catch the
shuttle bus from wherever it is that it leaves from to go into
Heathrow (and I've looked and failed to find any information about
this shuttle bus on the Heathrow website).

The other option for pedestrians is to walk to Terminal 4 then catch
the Heathrow Express train to Terminals 1,2 & 3 - though they do only
go every 15 minutes, so the Piccadilly line does seem like a good
option.

Plus a Hatton Cross - Heathrow fare is just £1 at any time on Oyster
PAYG.
