It's also bloody stupid because who would want to change at Euston? It
must jointly win the prize (along with Embankment) as the station with
the most people standing looking lost at every line diagram or sign
pointing to a platform or line.

Far more convenient to take the Bakerloo Line to Oxford Circus and make
a cross platform, level interchange to the Victoria Line to Kings Cross.

The Jubilee Line to Green Park and then Victoria Line is not ideal but
it's probably less confusing, as a second choice, than going via Euston.

Or Northern/Piccadilly via Leicester Sq., which is the way I did it in
pre-Victoria Line days.

Well yes but that can be a dire interchange if you choose the wrong
route between lines. It's also awful if you have luggage - I use
Leicester Square every day and the number of people struggling with
heavy luggage is considerable given Eurostar / Heathrow flows from the
Northern / Picc lines respectively.
