For past few years a trend has been set by IR. A train is being given commercial Halt within a very short span at another station of the same city shortly after departing from a major station. There are countless examples throughout the country, amidst which some notable examples are Guwahati/ Kamakhya, CSTM/ Dadar, NDLS/ NZM/ Delhi Cantt, HWH/ SRC, BPL/ Habibganj, SBC/ BNC, Patna/ Rajendranagar, ADI/ Sabarmati etc. And not only ordinary Mail/ Express, many big names like Swarna Jayanti Rajdhani, Ajmer Shatabdi, Bengaluru Shatabdi, Ashram, Shram Shakti, Saraighat, North East, Vikramshila, Gitanjali, Punjab Mail, Kalka Mail, Bengaluru Mail etc are falling under this scheme in recent days.

Baki cities ka to pata nahi lekin agar Jaipur me DPA, GADJ ke stoppage khatam kar diye gaye to JP par itni jyada public ho jayegi ki sambhalne ke liye military lani pad jayegi.
I will go with option 1. Take example of CR in Mumbai metropolitan region. Even a train like Tejas express halts at CSMT, Dadar, Thane and Panvel. Many other halt at CSMT, Dadar, Thane and Kalyan. Mumbaikars find it convenient considering the massive size of the city. After all, of these are trains dedicated to Mumbai city, so no harm if there are multiple halts within city!
