I agree it should have been publicised better (and other than at Heuston), but the bylaws do require that you have a ticket available for inspection until you exit the destination station.

It was either all or nothing as regards gating the platforms at Heuston, and quite a lot of trains coming in are commuter services now. And on a separate point, there is quite often no onboard ticket checker on Cork-Dublin trains.
