Most people do 5 days a week, 46 weeks a year - with 6 weeks holidays.
Alton to Waterloo is £5520 a year, 50 miles each way or 23,000 miles a year, 24p per mile.

Cool so one single example that doesn't support your claim and zero interest in discussing it on a wider basis.
Southampton 20p/mile
Brighton 17p/mile
Battle 22p/mile
Compare to say wilmslow to Manchester (33p/mile), or northwich (29p/mile)
Compared to to people doing one off journeys. London-Southampton 77p/mile, Brighton 46p/mile, Battle 53p/mile
Brighton is £559/mo for the Thameslink only ticket (the cheaper one) and 50.5 miles to London Bridge. Even being generous saying 22 days a month, that's 25p/mile.
Just give up.
I've proved your "A typical season ticket into London is under 20p a mile" claim wrong multiple times.
Southampton to Waterloo is just about the exception at ~19p/mile if you assume 22 days per month which I think is exceptional.
