Surely the Oxford St Tram would be built later, in which case they should be
arguing for the Oxford St Tram to fully link up with CRT, rather than the
other way round.

It's a good idea to take the necessary precautions already in a case
like this. I'm not exactly sure what they would be.

Routing it down Tottenham Court Road instead of Southampton Row!

Okay, so that's not likely. It probably just means making sure enough room
is left around the alignment at Holborn to be able to fit in a junction
with tracks along New Oxford Street. There's doubtless the matter of route
protection, too.
