Looks like these are advances only for specific trains..
Not really ideal for a work commute.
Of course, GTR could just ease peak time restrictions on flexible tickets.

Britain’s biggest train company is offering cheaper tickets to encourage more commuters to return to offices on Mondays and Fridays.
Govia Thameslink Railway (GTR) said it has started selling Advance tickets for travel on some of its Southern services during the morning and evening peak periods on those days, saving passengers up to 15%.
The coronavirus pandemic has led to a major change in travel patterns, with many commuters only heading into offices on Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays.
GTR said its morning peak services only carry around 210,000 passengers on Mondays, compared with between 230,000 and 250,000 on each of the middle three days of the working week.
