That's not a huge number of trains. Even if it was, LIRR could work out a solution to have some Amtrak trains make it to the station a little earlier, or even having some wait time at the West Side Railyard.

Why would Amtrak concede their revenue making and highly popular Acela service?

I don't understand what you mean about holding trains at WSY, but if you mean holding revenue trains in WSY from the Empire or South, that does not help. Not only does it mean keeping passengers waiting for other trains' movements (like on Class 1 trackage) it means more movments through A Interlocking (reverse movements through Penn sta. itself) and congestion.
