Future of CDRs and NR season tickets in TfL zones?

The National Rail fares system is a complicated mess at the moment, and
hardly sets a good example for London to revert to.

Apart from a few anomalies, it isn't that complicated at all (though this
appears to be the line taken by TfL - mustn't confuse the dumb travelling
public - let's just have simple and much higher fares overall).
Take Bexley NR station, Zone 6. Turn up off-peak and ask for day return
ticket to London. Clerk asks if you want tube and bus - if so you get a
travelcard, if not you get a nice cheap CDR. What's so complicated about
that?
What is a scandal though is all the people sold Travelcards by lazy ticket
clerks who should really be issuing CDRs, and people who don't know NR
season tickets exist to London terminals from around here (and are buying
much more expensive period Travelcards!) Sad, but true.
