Btw, wasn't there a convenient old tunnel from Waverley to Scotland street? Might make more sense for a N-S tram route, except would need matching tunnel at similar level on the old-town side.
I liked the system in many east-european cities: Trams for the old centre, trolleybuses to the suburbs, 'auto'-buses to the villages. Have to change, but it flows faster.

not sure about convenient really. Very steep too - https://www.subbrit.org.uk/sites/scotland-street-tunnel/
