Khan is reviewing the decision to close every ticket office on the Tube.

I would regard it as a mistake to close ticket offices at some major
stations with special requirements, like Heathrow.

Did LU ever have a ticket office at T5?

The TfL home page says nothing about this. I think that the management
would be devastated if the decision were reversed.

Also, the Tube management has done an extraordinary "damned memory" job
on the old ticket offices; in most stations it is impossible to tell that
a ticket office was ever there, it's just perfect tiling.

At a lot of the busier stations the wall-space has been used for more
ticket machines.

Yes, and the arrangement seems to work quite well, with a hovering
uniformed station assistant helping anyone who's confused. Most stations
that I use, whether in the suburbs or in central London, have shorter
queues than before.
