It's complicated in the sense that all journeys are individually
priced.


And why is being individually priced a bad thing? Look at the example I
gave elsewhere in the thread: the Northern Line ticket from Morden to
Waterloo costs the same as the ticket from Morden going all the way to
Mill Hill East. Passangers to Waterloo are paying for around twice as
much journey than they actually use. An individually priced
Morden-Waterloo ticket would solve this problem.


In the days of point-to-pint fars on LUL a season ticket was
restrictive. You coud only alight at stations on the direct line of
route.

A zonal season (or one day) ticket is much more useful - oh sorry,
according to yyour argument "less fair".
