I've heard something similar to that also.

In fairness the 63rd Street Tunnel was meant for a Queens Super-Express - so using the "adapted tunnel" and the F-train as the full-time express was a compromise.

There were several debates online by transit fans that the usage of the V-train as the 63rd Street Tunnel main route would have kept the designation "Tunnel To Nowhere" for a long time. In the addition the severe over-crowding of the 53rd Street Tunnel would most likely have continued - instead of an attempt to reduce the over-crowding.

Plus the V-train did not get any love by plenty of Transit fans!
