Shouldn't the high speed line run from St Pancras, as an extension (via
reversal) of the Kent domestics?

Not enough platforms, and there's be the mother of all flat junctions
just outside the station.

It won't be very attractive to international travellers if once they arrive
at St P. they have to schlep over to euston or paddington with all their
luggage by foot or tube. Would a large junction matter? Its not like theres
trains leaving every minute clapham junction style.
