There seem to be a number of routes where you can legally ride with

Gating, probably. On 'one', for example, you could travel between
Seven Sisters &
Liverpool Street - both of which are gated, but not get out at the
intermediate stops - which
are not gated. PAYG can't work without oyster readers. Existing
gates had to be upgraded
to Oyster to allow Oyster travelcards to continue to work - as were
gatelines which were shared LUL
/national rail, but installing entirely new equipment is another
matter...
