Probably only because theres no way to prevent it. Though LU did
insist on
old paper travelcards that they were non transferable. Why they
bothered I
have no idea. Perhaps something to do with selling to touts.

Possibly or just the whole (stupid) mentality the railways etc. have
about transferring tickets. TfL presumably re-wrote the conditions to
say Oyster PAYG products are transferable simply because it is
unenforceable.

I have to say you never seem to see touts buying & selling ODTC so that
is a good thing in many ways.

There is quite often someone soliciting just that standing just outside
the doors at New Cross Gate
