Pay wave can only be used for a purchase of up to £15 (only recently
increased from £10), so it's not really suitable for purchasing multiple
tickets.

No? It would cover 7 adult singles between Victoria and Paddington.

You'd only get two typical Travelcards (in one transaction). But I don't
think anyone is suggesting that TfL are upgrading their ticket machines to
take Paywave - they've had three years to do that and no sign of it.

I would not be totally sure about that. Visa have said they want the
Olympics to be "cashless" and seem to be pushing the adoption of Paywave
with the connivance of the ODA. They haven't got far yet but I suspect
you'll see some activity in the near future. There is an article in this
weeks Computing

not that it mentions TfL at all.
