Dunno, but there is no excuse for 2-car DMUs to be being used on this

Look at Merseyrail for how it should be done (and without any new
MUs)

Eh?

On the electric lines, new MUs were introduced as the loop line was
being developed. They certainly aren't *still* new, but they were new
for the current routes.

As for the diesel services, by common consent the Merseyrail version of
the 142 (a stubby 2-car train) is the least favourite train in .uk.

It's hard to see what point you are making, and how Merseyrail
demonstrates it.
