Q1: Did he deliberately (or even accidentally) diddle me out of 80p?

Possibly - since zone extensions are meant to be issued. In any case CDRs
are usually cheaper. Is this policy perhaps?

Q2: As the station nearest BZ6 is actually St Mary Cray (or is it
Swanley, the online map has a big ATOC watermark obscuring the exact
boundary), and the train I caught stopped there too, how much cheaper
yet is a St Mary Cray to Chatham CDR?

5.40 (1.80 cheaper)

The train has to stop at St Mary Cray (which is the last station in zone 6).

Even when I've specifically asked for a Bromley South-Chatham CDR, *and*
all the trains stop there (so we can ignore all the complex rules about
joined-up tickets).

Yes, I know, and only the slow trains do. Which is why I originally
chose Bromley South where they all stop. (And I have to admit I'd
forgotten about the BZ tickets, but would have expected it to be cheaper
than 7.20 not more!)
