edit: of this transit mockup from atl reddit users, the peach lines are considered commuter. spoiling because it's massive:
I just spent 10 minutes looking for the "Peach Line" or in my mind a line that is "peach" in color. I finally realized the "Peach Line" is actually PINK in color.

I am still not clear what commuter rail is? Will the Peach Line not use the same transportation tech as our current MARTA lines? Are you saying Commuter Rail is different from Heavy Rail? Is there any logistical or technical reason a Commuter Rail line cannot be incorporated into the Five Points Station?
