Default London Overground ticket machines & Oyster

I wonder why they can't use a similar system to add Oyster

London Overground is TfL's toy of the month...


It's worth it for the manufacturers of NR ticket machines to come up
with an Oyster solution, because it'll eventually be needed across the
network. The DLR ticket machines are a fairly unique and quite elderly
design, and I doubt TfL is willing to fund its further development.
Never seen a Tramlink ticket machine.
