Very. For example, it would be useful to have platforms on either the
Met. or the Chiltern lines at West Hampstead to allow a connection to
Thameslink and the NLL, but there isn't even the room to do that.

There may not be space to add bank platforms [1] outside the Met
tracks, but isn't there space to rebuild the station as a pair of
islands between the Met and Jubilee pairs?

No.

Presumably, because platforms half the width of the existing platform,
which is what there'd be space for, wouldn't be allowed?

Probably the best you could manage is something like this:

Ooh, i like that. You could add another island further to the left for the
Chiltern lines!

Any reason you've drawn it upside-down?
