Also-- The headway issue could be easily solved by alternating trains to the northshore and southshore

You've got the scale all wrong. The SIR runs 4tph local and 4tph express tops, using 300' trains. Assuming that the North Shore has the same level of demand, if you doubled the train lengths, you'd still be left with 8tph tops. It's just nowhere near enough to justify that tunnel on its own.
