I'd be inclined to replace this with "A seven day 1 - 6 zone
travelcard is likely to be good value for money unless you never

They really are hugely better value than any capping limit, even if
you only use them over five days.

Can we see a rough calculation ?

A 1-6 7D is £44.60 so you expect to exceed £8.92 on most of those five
days without 1) or 3) being true ?

Off-peak 1-6 cap is £6.50 1-2 cap is £4.80

Peak 1-6 cap is £13.30 1-2 cap is £6.30

For tourists and depending on hotel location (and time you finish
breakfast) a 1-2 (£24.20) 7D would often be better value. Buying a
off-peak 1D is £7.00 per day but there is the complication that a
Railcard discount to £4.80 is available to some.
