Whilst this 'delay' is being done to flatten the cost to the treasury, it really needs to be accompanied by a new cost benefit analysis based on a re-estimated total cost. This work must have been done to justify the decision, and for a project this size - which from the outside looks to be spiraling out of control scope/schedule/price wise - needs to be published.
It would be interesting if there’s any response from Hitachi Rail who have invested quite a bit to supply circa 432 trains. Initially due to be running by 2029 but now departure truly unknown.

Surely inflation alone means delays cost more?

If you delay it long enough, it becomes somebody else's problem.
Contracts will exist, people will demand paying, even if nothing worthwhile results - as with the Millennium Dome, etc.
