You mean to avoid paying for the same small section of the journey
twice. An interesting point that I had not thought of. But will
the
discount that applies when an Oyser card is used balance this out?
No.

So how much is an Travelcard for zones 1-2 when purchased as an add-on
to an off-peak rail ticket?

There is no such thing. There are only out-boundary Travelcards.

There must be a price differential between (1) buying a ticket from a
place outside London to the London terminus and (2) buying a ticket
from the same place to Zones 1-2. That was the question. I do not
know all the terminology.

Actually, if you are stupid enough to buy a ticket to zone 1, the
differential is 8 pounds per return ticket.

If you buy a travel card, from my local station the extra costs is about
3.50 without a railcard or 2.30 with.

I am not sure what you are comparing with what here.

I'm answering the question that was asked:

"how much more is an 'add on' zone 1 ticket from outside Zone 6 than a SDR
to London"
