But York Road would be well patronised if it did reopen. However, much of
that traffic would simply be displaced from King's Cross, so it wouldn't be
new traffic. Hence there's no real business case that could justify the
high costs and longer Picc journey times.

Here's TfL's feasibility study into reopening York Road:

The resulting business case was described as 'extremely poor'.

That appears to be from 2004, approximately 11 years ago. I wonder if
LUL would at this time consider a re-evaluation, especially considering
that they plan to introduce driverless drains, which would use
moving-block signalling.

Here's some pictures I took in the new Central Saint Martins building
(voted the world's best higher education building in 2012). In one of
them, you can see York Road station, just up the road:

The end of year show is a good time to go and have a look around inside
the new CSM building - well worth it. Some of the art is pieces are
pretty good too, or at least quite fun.
