Default Another bus oddity: 812

The other day I needed to reach the Old Street area and noticed on the
London Central Bus map leaflet the 812, which might have been useful.

But the leaflet says about the 812:
"Valid Freedom Passes can be used on this service (Bus Passes,
Travelcards, Oystercards and Saver Tickets are not accepted)."

By Bus Passes I assume it means the National Bus Pass for the over-60s
and handicapped. I thought that all scheduled short-distance services
were required to accept these, whatever the operator? If this service
accepts the TfL Freedom Pass but not these (which are the equivalent
issued outside London), then it's a real curiosity.
