Question for tdac, is outbound flight necessary for dtv Visa holder?

Thanks for your help!
Answer summary
The consensus among commenters is that an outbound flight is not necessary for holders of a DTV (Digital Nomad Visa) in Thailand. The DTV is a multi-entry visa valid for five years, allowing holders to live and travel within Thailand in 180-day blocks. A one-way ticket is considered sufficient.
