Also - aren't those upgrades to Grand Central already planned as a mitigation for the upzoning in that area? East Side Access will also add a lot of circulation space there, although I'm not sure it benefits the 7 riders.

I don't think the envisioned upgrades for the rezone would handle PABT type of loads, the plans in the EDC study for the 7 extension had substantially more work suggested. Also I think most of the currently scoped GC fixes were street level and mezzanine including substantial fare control reconfiguration while the absolutely horrid circulation to/from the 7 platform was going unchanged.
