However, if they stay on their Thameslink train from Stevenage or
King's Lynn, they will be able to change onto Crossrail at Farringdon
and head westwards then.

After having headed eastwards about a mile further than they needed to
go.

So what? I regularly take a massive detour via Oxford Circus on a tube
journey from Warwick Avenue to Victoria. If you were doing that journey
above ground it would be an insane route to take. If you're doing the
journey by tube it would be insane to go any other way.

I did wonder what the Underground map will look like post-Crossrail -
assuming it gets incorporated. The eastern side of zone 1 is going to look
very different.
