We forecast that, in the event that $e^\pm$ injection spectra are harder than $E^{-2}$, CTA has the potential to robustly discover the IC signature of a putative Galactic bulge MSP population sufficient to explain the GCE for $e^\pm$ injection efficiencies in the range $\approx 2. 9-74. 1\%$, or higher, depending on the level of mismodeling of the Galactic diffuse emission components.
