I think it's because they would have to make a bridge for the HS2 line to go over the through tracks that service platforms 13+14 - that's why the new station will be on the north side of Piccadilly. I'm more intersted in why it didn't end up in Salford, near Salford Central, it was one of the options and would have rebalanced the centre of MCR/Salford somewhat... I suspect Lees and Bernstein were lobbying hard.
