Surely the point is that if 'first touch in that day' is later than 0930 the

And the time of touching in is very relevant, because that determines the

It's this part I disagree with:

"If your first touch in takes place before 0930, all your peak and
offpeak
daily fares will be added up and capped at the daily Peak value. "

If (hypothetically) the peak cap were £6 and the off-peak cap were £3,
if you were to make one £1 journey before 9.30am, trips after 9.30
would still be capped at £3, for a total cost for the day of £4.
