I wonder what the conductors are doing with the money people pay them
on the 38 then.

Er - I don't think the OP would have got where he wanted to go on the
38!

I do accept that the Euston arrangement is the most sensible, though,
since it helps you keep going in the same general direction (north or
south - even though the northbound Northern line is heading southwest at
Euston),

The primary purpose of the Euston interchange is to allow passengers
from the northern branches of the Northern Line to reach the West End.
The interchange is on the Bank branch because, pre Victoria Line, this
had much lighter loadings.

but the other way is useful too - it helps you get from Victoria
to the City.

That's what the Circle Line was built for.

If they were really clever, they would have put the crossover between
Euston and King's Cross, and built King's Cross crossplatform with the
Northern (City) as well,

Not enough room available.

I didn't think the Circle Line was built. I thought it just became!

Like some sort of immaculate construction?
