So one platformn is being removed from LS just after the Overground has

No, the existing Shenfield trains use 16,17,18. When Crossrail opens
they will go through the centre (i.e. the new Liverpool Street Crossrail
platforms) except for some in the peak that will go into the existing
Liverpool Street using platforms 16 and 17 - 18 will have been lost to
make 16 and 17 long enough.

Yes, so a platform has been lost. And this is when TfL will at some point
want to increase the frequency of the Overground running to LS.
