When is a travelcard not a travelcard?

Would Croydon (or wherever, I see he wasn't too specific) have
sold him a
Watford Junction outboundary Travelcard, though? And wouldn't it be
valid
for a return trip to the zones if so?
I expect they could if asked, but the ticket would still not be
valid after the first trip to Watford Jn. By analogy, as you are
probabaly aware, the outward part of a two part ticket is not valid
without the return...
In the light of Barry's info, I'd clarify that by saying they are no
longer valid on the NR part of the route once they have been used to
return to the origin. As the barriers will have normally eaten it,
using the zonal validity again in the same day will require the user
to avoid the barriers.
Did you mean "the outboundary part of the route" rather than "the NR
part of the route", or am I still misunderstanding?
Yes - sorry about that.
