When the battle to use the Lister-Goldsmith plan to build the M11 Link Road (i.e. A12 through Leyton) the land beside the underground track to Leytonstone was safeguarded for the Chelsea - Hackney line. In other words the line would go from Chelsea to Leytonstone. Hence the current space for an additional track. The Government now want to replace the Chelsea to Hackney line with Crossrail 2.
They are suggesting 2 options, one from Wimbledon to Alexandra Park and the other Epsom to Cheshunt. Neither would go via Leytonstone.
