Excellent points, lesouris. I think that a reason enough for extending the B-D to MCC is because MCC is really the downtown of another city. I think that there's a lot of potential to start developing and having reverse-commuting up to offices in downtown Mississauga. At the same time, it would of course serve Mississaugans that live in Mississauga.
Of course, the Milton and Midtown corridors should be brought to full use by then, hopefully with fare integration and the works as well. Again, same with the Richmond Hill line. If Bloor gets extended, then I think that a) a Hurontario subway becomes viable, especially if there's more development in MCC and b) it might make some sense to rename our subway lines! If it becomes the B-D-D then that's both a mouthful and a perfect opportunity to rename it to either the Green Line or the District Line!
