Not sure if Wandsworth Common is, but even if it is, the barriers at
much busier stations, such as, errm, Balham, are just left open late in
the evening, presumably to save on staffing costs.

Is it possible that when you touch in at certain key points an OEP will be
added automatically? After all, if it isn't used it doesn't matter (as far
as I can see).

No, because customers who don't touch out when exiting within their
