A lot less chance of fraud (or driver error when examining the ticket) when the technology is providing the validation for you.
I'd also say multi-trip tickets should be reduced on a Sunday and Bank Holiday, to reflect the level of service you have on those days. I find it easy enough to get around with Sunday service if you plan properly, but I kind of resent paying the same fare as I do on a Saturday.
I recently had need to buy a Day Rover and 3 Zone plus on consecutive days.
It was an expensive two days, operators could easily have saved me a considerable amount of money, if the ticket was available for 24 hours.
To prove your point about the technology, I accidentally picked the wrong ticket out of my wallet at one point on the second day.
It didn't work. The machine pinged an error and I was forced to use the correct ticket.
