This would kill any chance of later implementing a non-express stop without rebuilding the line through the city. However this plan is from before Windsor was included, so maybe that conceptual alignment could be reconsidered.
I think building high-speed rail that by-passes Guelph is a much, much easier problem than making the corridor through Guelph suitable for high-speed rail. One thing I really like about the current project is that it limits its scope substantially, which gives it a much higher chance of actually getting built.
