Default Tickets to Custom House - quick question

Dave Arquati wrote:

The quote from the manual doesn't make any reference to zones; obviously
day returns are not zonal. Besides, the only "reasonable" LU/DLR route
between NLL stations avoiding Zone 1 is use of the Jubilee/DLR between
Stratford and Custom House. The only other available non-Zone 1 route is
Richmond/Kew/Gunnersbury to West Hampstead via Turnham Green, Ealing
Common/Hammersmith, Rayners Lane and Wembley Park, not something I'd
consider reasonable.

Just to expand on this, the equivalent wording (also from Section L) for
the use of LU/DLR tickets on the NLL is:

LU/DLR tickets valid in Zones 1, 2, 3 and 4 are also valid on National
Rail services between Richmond and North Woolwich (via North London Line).

Which really confuses matters, given the NLL doesn't enter Zone 1!

Cheers,
