I seem to remember running into that problem trying to do Highbury and
Islington to Clapham Junction too.


You shouldn't run in to that problem because there are only 3 fares.

The default fare is on the TfL tariff and is priced avoiding Zone 1
regardless of which way round you go - via Peckham or via Willesden.
As there are through trains there is no way that TfL can determine
which route you took which is why the Overground fare is route
agnostic for Highbury - Clapham Junction.


Even though, if you go via Peckham Rye you do go through Zone 1 at
Shoreditch High Street.
