The rule will be:
If you are travelling outside the zones of your Travelcard(s) on a
National Rail train, you must load an OEP before boarding that
train.

Two examples:

1)

Z1-2 Travelcard onOystercard
Liverpool Street NR to Stratford
OEP set before entry
Mixed Travel Entry charge deducted on entry
balance adjusted on exit according to the NR only Z3 NR extension
fare
(which will be the same as the Z3 NR pay as you go charge)
NB this will technically be the TfL Z3 fare (because the route
currently accepts payg) but will be capped at the NR fare
OEP removed by exit touch

Isn't Liverpool St to Stratford valid for PAYG now and therefore won't
need an OEP?

OEPs don't exist until 2 January. After then NR appears to divided into
two classes, where PAYG is valid today and where PAYG is extended from 2
January. Only the latter will need OEPs.

The rule is simpler than that

starting within zones of TC - travelling on NR train beyond zones of
Travelcard - OEP required.
