I spent a lot of months & years in various parts of London with work, I know how the transport systems operate.
If you want to treat London as one 'region', fair enough, If that's the case then you place the entire 'region' in the tier of which the highest borough should reside. Which would in this case be T3

We're talking about quite small areas geographically. You could take a bus and in less than an hour have been in and out of tier 2 multiple times. London is one city, the boroughs exist for administration purposes. If the boroughs were bigger or more easily defined it wouldn't be so bad. If we were just saying 'North London, East London, West London and South London' then it would be more feasible. It's more obvious. You cross the river and then the tiers change or if anything West of the A10 was tier 2 and anything East is in tier 2. Also easier. Good luck trying to divide Camden/Islington/Hackey though.
