Yes, because... Transport for London affects Londoners more
If you live in London you are resigned to the fact you have to use public transport due to congestion. Therefore, since I am being forced to use it ALL the time, I should have more say in its running than those who only use it for commuting purposes.
If Londoners use public transport more it will only be marginally so. And if Oyster card season ticket holders use the facilities at the weekend they do so effectively for free as travel at the weekends is included in the price of their weekly ticket.
Since people who live outside London pay the same as those who live in London we could make the argument that people who commute should have more say over those who live here since they get to experience fewer benefits.
