Not quite the point. A stratford stop *adds* direct access to the other
lines.

How direct? You will still need to put your ticket in/near gate to
get to/from the Jubilee line.

Indeed. But that's not something you could do at StP.

So? I'm sorry, but I really don't see how that matters. You still get
much more direct access to the Jubilee line.

My question is "what is more direct about it"?

So? You will also have to put your ticket in a gate to get to the tube from
St Pancras.
