I live in zone 3/4 and getting around on the tube is not bad at all. There is a daily cost cap of around £8 depending on how far you go, but I usually don't hit it or get that close. But regional trains I agree can be super expensive. So for those living outside the greater London area, that could indeed be rough.

It's not just those living outside London. I live in London and travel outside of it because I know people living all over the country, I take weekend holidays to nature, etc. Via rail if I did the same journeys I do in the car it could easily cost me 500-1000GBP a month. Non-advance tickets are basically priced at the "no, we don't want you to make that journey" level.
