Trains on the Circle and Hammersmith & City lines will increase in size
from six to seven carriages, an overall capacity increase of 17 per
cent, as will those on the District line between Edgware Road and
Wimbledon.
[...]
District line trains (D-stock) will increase to seven carriages from
their present six carriages but the overall train length will remain
virtually the same

The first part refers to S-stock, right?

Is it 7 carriages each the length of the C-stock ones, in which case how
are they going to solve the platform length issues? Or is 7S the same
length as 6C, in which case the "increase of 17%" is grossly misleading.

The second part is talking about replacing 6D by 7S, right?
