my main concern is with the island airport infrastructure itself - parking and pickup/dropoff at the bottom of bathurst is already a mess. how much more volume can that airport handle?

Concur. But the planes trains (boats!) and automobiles to get there is a bit much. No one has ever been able to answer this question to my satisfaction: Why don't they put the shuttle bus
ON THE FERRY.
A quick eyeball says it fits. I can see there being a bit of a weigh balance issue, but we're talking about the world's shortest ferry ride. If it
doesn't fit, find an option that does. I know they exist - I've seen some pretty short buses in some parts of Europe to deal with low bridges.
If I could take the train to Union then get on a bus and sit my bum down 1 time and get dropped at the terminal, that'd suit me just fine. The whole point of YTZ is to avoid cars. Take transit, call a taxi, ask a friend, (insert rest of "drunk driving" alternatives from latest PSA here).
