I am still thinking this is not the planned Apron on the current drop off zone , (as LTNman says you can only get four stands in that location. ) but the one by the Run Up Bay.
As Dannyboy39 was saying it could help with holding a/c if the concrete is poured at that location but I am sure that’s not the real reason.
I agree, some sort of remote stands for the overnights, and then can be pulled back onto terminal stands once the early departures free them up.
Then again this could be used more to where traditionally Biz are put on the Pond or Cargo and would give fast access to runway (subject to traffic).
When they resurface stands 1A to 8 then there will be a loss of parking at that point anyhow.
