For casual use, Oyster pre-pay isn't for you. Until national rail

ODTs can be bought at "Ticket Stops" (ie, newsagents) on Oyster
these days... can't they?

You can't get an ODT on Oyster. But you can get Oyster Pre-Pay which is
capped at the ODT rate or less (for journeys on TfL services). However
you have to pay a £3 deposit to get an Oyster card. If they really want
to encourage Oyster use, they should waive the deposit, or waive it if
at least, say, £10 is loaded on to an Oyster Pre-Pay.
