It would be the only way to affordably keep service to and from the Airport. As for C frequencies I'd argue that they could be increased due to the line having a new, dedicated terminal. The trunk can handle more traffic, it's the terminals that are the constraint.

Yes! I would really like to see some ideas on where to send the Blue Line, I have some thoughts but they aren’t fully formed yet
-
I'm a big fan of a Blue Line extension past Charles to Kendall, then onto Grand Junction alignment, then out as far as Riverside, Lower Falls, beyond

part of my larger "let's run reciprocal service between subways and suburban railways" idea
-
You extend it up to Lynn and you could do through running from Worcester to the Newburyport/Rockport Line (really would enjoy the MBTA actually having CR line names as well)

yes, exactly

It’s very Japanese of you. I’m not sure it’s the best use of funds even with a lot more $ but it’s intriguing
-
It's very Japanese but also has a long history in old '60s and '70s Boston transit plans. The core problem I see, aside from federal regs, is that the core subway trunks here are relatively low-capacity and will probably fill up with just existing service in the coming years.

It does fit my idea of a Fairmount Line + downtown subway tunnel to Chelsea via Charlestown or East Boston though.
