No local parking at a reasonable rate, no close by highway, and limited access by car for drop offs, and limits to space for taxi and Uber pick ups.

Transit inefficiency isn't an argument against Union. It applies anywhere in Ottawa. If anything Union is the best spot because you not only have Line 1 (like Tremblay), but dozens of bus routes nearby.
The rest of your arguments are mostly solid.
