Discounts don't apply across the board (for example a 'student' card
doesn't give a discount on tube fares). However both contactless and
Oyster are usable on National Rail lines within the TfL area, so why
shouldn't people be able to get a discount if they have an appropriate
railcard?

I'm not saying they shouldn't - I'm just saying that everywhere else
I've looked at such things Railcards are a long-distance product only
and don't apply to local journeys within a joint-tariff area.

The Swiss Halbtax does (at least on ZVV), but I can't think of any
others...
