Au contraire. It's entirely possible for an NR Ticket Office to issue a
Travelcard including A-D [1] by doing it as if you'd bought it *from*
Amersham. [2]

[2] In other words, by issuing an Amersham to Zone R1256 Travelcard

Would such a ticket be valid to Chesham?

Yes, Chesham is in Zone D

And would the ticket be valid throughout Zone D? ISTM it would just be
valid to Amersham (and even then, for just one return journey from
Amersham to Moor Park, plus unlimited travel in Z1-6).

Well strictly speaking its valid for unlimited journeys between
Amersham and zones 1-6 (so you could go to Amersham, pop to
Rickmansworth, then back to Amersham before going home - if you really
want to) but you'd have no trouble getting to Chesham also. This issue
with NR tickets is well known to staff.
