    The actual answer is there's operational cost to handling cash, or payment methods beyond the ones that cover 99.9% people well. You pay more for the extra hassle the whole system has to serve that .1%

    You may not like or disagree with it. But it's the true answer.

      Others already answered why you're wrong so I won't repeat it; just wanted to point out how your comment reads like a silly "you may not like it, but this is what peak performance looks like" meme.
