Although actually terminating at Dumpling Hall or Chapel House as say an 'X40' to give people living furthest away from the City Centre a more direct link during Peak Times. This would be particularly helpful when Stagecoach constantly allocate single decker vehicles onto the 12/22/39/40/62/63 it seems & the bus is most likely overcrowded very quickly, particularly at busy times.
A little like the SuperLoop in London, where the bus only stops at select stops, opposed to every single stop as a typical local bus. Also, if it were to be a successful initiative, something that may be feasible to operate during the day aswell...
There used to be an X80/X81 until early 2000s that operated to Dumpling Hall & West Denton Park that were withdrawn and then replaced by the 39 & 10!
