Hadn't they notice that the picc and met share the same track between

Of course they had. The plan was (I think) to have both systems
installed on the track. As long as each one knows where all of the
trains on the section are, there's no problem.
As far as I know, no new contract has been awarded, so it could still
go to a contractor who uses a different system to the Piccadilly
(which will likely get Alcatel S40 - the same as Jubilee (being
installed), Northern (planned) and DLR (in use for years) - due to
being controlled by Tube Lines.
