>I can't really think of many reasons why you would use crypto to pay for a coffee or a sandwich if you live in the West (or frankly, even most developing nations).

Credit card companies/banks sell your transaction data for a lot of money, and plenty of unscrupulous players can garner a lot about your life from such data. While BTC is only pseudonymous, it can provide some shielding from this.
