Maybe.

The current Flats rail yards are still relatively underused, and the bottleneck with bringing in cargo from the south is the Westminister Bridge, not the Strathcona rail connector.

Most cargo uses the Burrard Inlet CN line still.

I'm just saying it's more likely (and probably smarter) that there are more tracks built to connect to those railyards than it is for them to be removed.
It's not needed right now.
