They designed the western split before the extension From Bayshore to Moodie (let alone Kanata) was in the plans. Both the Kanata and Barrhaven extensions were in the Ultimate Network plan, but neither was expected any time soon.

I think it would make more sense to send direct trains to Bayshore (and Kanata, once phase 3 is built)

While the Kanata extension will likely get built first, the Barrhaven one won't be far behind. Also, while Kanata/Stittsville might be larger than Barrhaven, you have to factor in the demand at other stations south and west of Lincoln Fields as well. You also need to factor in the demographics and who will be using it late at night when it will be operating in transfer mode.
