As for Willesden Junction, IIRC the pink validator is half-way along
the (narrow) tunnel between the two groups of platforms, so anyone who
would benefit from using the pink validator there will naturally walk
past it when changing trains.

Isn't there a second route nowadays from the north end of the
footbridge *(ie turning left at the top of the P1/2/3 stairs) to
the eastern end of *the high level platforms - not a lot of use if
there is no pink *validator in that direction...

Yes there is. I've only used it once and can't recall if there was an
* Oyster validator on that route. If there isn't, then there should be.

There should be one on the NLL platforms as people can change trains there.

Are you thinking about journeys like Highbury & Islington to Clapham
Junction, if you get a Richmond train and have to change at WJ to a
WJ-CJ train? *But you can do the whole journey on one train if you time
it right. What happens then? *Do you get lumbered with a "via Zone 1" fare?

That one seems to be priced not via zone 1 by default.
