The underground train goes straight underneath the main terminal, so a brand new line would have been needed to connect the new satellite, which would have been too expensive considering the relatively low amount of pax using it. That said an underground walkway wouldn't have been a luxury.

I think the train track has provisions for an extension towards the southwest of the main terminal where they plan to build the next terminal when traffic grows enough, if it ever does...
