I agree but the cost would have be astronomical. Hundreds of billions of dollars is the likely cost for a subway from Kennedy to the Airport and even for Doug and Rob Ford it would have been political suicide.
They chose the current design because of cost. "Subways! Subways! Subways!" Can only get you so far otherwise we would have alot more subways being built.
Hundreds of Billions?
Uhhh, no.
Not even remotely.
Its entirely reasonable to suggest putting the portion of this line east of VP underground may not have been politically viable; but it is not reasonable to exaggerate the cost of same by a factor of more than 10x.
A bit of restraint in the hyperbole please.
