This is baffling to me: there are actually people in the world who would happily go to a coffee shop, buy some coffee, and leave?

That's an extremely poor value proposition and I've been working to eliminate this particularly egregious form of waste from my budget. If all I want is coffee, I can make it myself.

The whole point is getting to spend some time in a pleasant place other than your home. Certainly some people can take "some time" too far, but I have no reason to be a customer at all if I'm expected to leave immediately.
