I would suggest (2b) As above but have the southbound Vermont track share a level with the eastbound Wilshire, and route the northbound Vermont track to the same level as the westbound Wilshire track. Why? To make transferring from one line to the other more convenient. It does help. Up here in Stockholm that's how the Green & Red subway lines do at the three stations they share.
Also: if ou have a Vermont-Valley line and a Whilsire-Whittier line, name them the V and the W
