My hypothesis is that it's an LUL machine there to provide a service

travelcards.
I wouldn't be surprised if that demand wasn't stoked by the presence
of the DLR. In particular, I can imagine DLR passengers used to spend
all day every day hassling the Southeastern ticket office for Oyster
cards and top ups.
I wouldn't be surprised if it tipped the balance, but the DLR in
general is only now responding to the demand at all other DLR
stations, and SET commuters certainly benefited.
