Do I misremember that there was a discussion here (one of
uk.transport.london or uk.railway -- x-posting to both) in which it
was suggested that the Network Card is not valid on Stansted Express?

This page seems to suggest it is valid:

Has this changed, is that page wrong, or did I just imagine the whole
discussion?

It's not valid for Stansted Express special online fares - that's the
only oddity about it.

Thanks - must have imagined it then.

So, the particular case in point: if I have a ticket from Cambridge to
London Terminals, routed 'NXEA only' and discounted with a Network
Card, can I travel Cambridge to Bishop's Stortford and then pick up
the Stansted Express there to Liverpool St?

By the sound of it the answer is 'yes'?

I reckon so - from Bishop's Stortford to Liverpool Street, the StEx is
in fares terms a regular NXEA service I think (though note that from
Liv St it's pick-up only at Tottenham Hale, even though I think plenty
of people use it for that journey anyway!).
