That was why I advised taking the first train to Edgware Road and changing
there if it is a Hammersmith and City. The Piccadilly is much slower and
the time taken to get down to deep level and back can't be ignored either.

If the Piccadilly is much slower, than why does TfL recommend this
route?
King's Cross St. Pancras to Fulham Broadway is 26 minutes via the
Piccadilly and a change at Earl's Court vs. around 31 minutes for the
District/Circle route. Plus the potentially much longer wait for the 6
tph between Edgware Road and Wimbledon vs. 24 trains per hour on the
Piccadilly and at least 12 tph on the last bit of the District from
Earl's Court.

Every day I have the choice of taking either the District line or the
Northern Line + NR for my commute, and every time I've gone for the
District I've regretted it. It's just so horribly slow, infrequent and
prone to delays.
I'd even consider just walking from Stamford Bridge to Earl's Court to
avoid the District altogether.

I've used the District, especially the Wimbledon branch, all my life. I
just don't agree with your assessment.

In my case it's also the Wimbledon branch to Parsons Green or Putney
Bridge, but I prefer national rail from Wandsworth Town by far.
