Maybe they should split the Northern into two notionally separate lines,

I think that this is likely when the branches are split (ie, all
Charing X trains go to Edgeware and all Bank trains go to to Edgeware.
Or the other way round).

That'd be a bit annoying for people living in High Barnet ;-)

Well, getting home would be a pain. But presumably, in this plan, to
preserve the symmetry, all Charing X trains start from High Barnet, and
all Bank trains start at High Barnet ...

Or maybe this plan implies resurrecting the Northern Heights plan, and
running High Barnet - East Finchley - Highgate HL - Finsbury Park -
Moorgate? In which case it would only be a bit annoying for people living
in High Barnet and working on the Charing X branch (although changing at
Highbury & Islington isn't so bad). Er, and for people living in Archway,
Tufnell Park and Kentish Town.
