I don't think there would be much if any time savings. On a bike, it's easier to stay at ground level.
From a station perspective, I think this latest plan is the best by far. From a connecting to the hospital perspective, I think skywalks from a third level of the headhouse would be best, but I'm quite happy with this approach.
The problem with the earlier plan is that the skywalk was kind of stand alone. It didn't connect directly to the station. It wouldn't have been possible, or at least very complicated, to connect it to the station at a later time, especially not some future southbound platform.

If you need to get to the Hospital, you go upstairs either way. With overpass you do it on the North side, with underpass you do it on the South side, after waiting 1-2 minutes to cross if you didn't arrive by train.
Tunnel option is basically exclusively for people arriving by train, which is kinda of a waste for 80M. Less usage for more money.
