Can we assume that, in a world of Oyster, contactless, point-to-point
tickets where they still exist being cheaper than zonal tickets, and a
wider political desire to one day do away with season tickets?


Granted it's been a while since I was living in London, but my annual Gold Card was loaded onto my Oyster, and since as far as I'm aware they haven't implemented annual capping I'm going to guess most commuters still do the same.
