Are you suggesting that RP staff are currently ignoring the situation of
a travelcard outside of the paid for zones when they encounter it on a
NR train?

Even if so, it only takes one TOC to change its policy to land you in
hot water. It is quite possible, for instance, that there was a
deliberate policy of taking a lenient approach while the system 'beds
in', and that at some point in the near future they will start enforcing
it rather more vigorously.
