The
data is in TfL's computers. They have software to publish that via a web
intertface. So why is only some data available.

As said elsewhere, probably for data protection reasons, given the
nature of the project (which didn't *need* to be like that).

Indeed, it is only like that because TfL set it up like that.

2. Oyster retailers can sell seven day (and longer) Travelcards on
Oyster
but not one day Travelcards.

Not necessary once all trains are included, and I can see an argument
that we are simply in a transitional or rollout phase, though I think
after 4 years the argument is getting a bit thin.

I think that argument was thin on day one, at which stage there was no
prospect of the trains being included.

3. The Tram terminus at Wimbledon is a mess.

It's not quite like that, but ...

I agree - it's a mess, simply mitigated, if the situation must
persist, by VERY obvious signage at Wimbledon.

Well there are posters on all Tram stops but they seem to have confused
rather than helped me!

The warning posters about this say that the same is true if you have a
Travelcard on Oyster but I know for a fact that that is not the case. So
either TfL don't know how their systems work or they are lying.

I think they're deliberately simplifying the message. They do the
same wherever the "need" to touch in and out is explained.

Some of the posters distinguish between Travelcard & PAYG.so I don't see why
these shouldn't
