I haven't ready any comments above, but my own 2 cents... 600' in many cases isn't too bad, but when you're carrying luggage (as at an airport you almost certainly are) then that can be a bit daunting. Also, the trek across a surface parking lot is never particularly pleasant or appealing, making even short distances seem rather longer.

However, I can also appreciate a need for cost savings where it makes sense to do so. That said, is there anything being planned to facilitate pedestrian travel between the station & terminal? I just did a quick skim of your write-up and didn't spot any mention, but I could certainly be missing it.

Moving walkways, ideally enclosed or at least covered, would certainly sway my opinion toward supporting such a realignment, but of course cost-savings considerations should also note long-term costs of any additional maintenance / operations of additional infrastructure geared toward moving people between station & terminal.
