What I did say is that there's no non-z1 fare from H&I to Putney - fact, see
the fare finder. And the TfL blurb is clear in stating that "Some journeys

accordingly, irrespective of the route taken".


Can't say I'm surprised. The zone system is only ever used as a way of
extracting the most money from of passengers and if theres a way someone could
use it to get a lower fare then by its nature TfL will move its own goalposts
to make sure that can't happen.

What utter nonsense. Your argument boils down to "I want to pay
exactly what I think I should pay". Your attitude reeks of egomania
by the way; the idea that Transport for London spends its time looking
for ways to overcharge you is quite sad really.
