What you are essentially doing is providing a holding track for 2 trains. This will prevent a Flatbush bound 5 from delaying any 3 that may be following a 2. It would not, as you observed, prevent a Flatbush bound express from interfering with a local bound for New Lots.

An even less expensive solution would be to place an express to local switch east of the existing junction. This would permit them to route all 2's and 3's to Flatbush, route 5's to New Lots while having them stop at Kingston and Nostrand Aves.
