It's not just overdraft fees right? It's overdraft fees plus transaction reordering which makes the magic happen.

I'm still kind of mesmerized on this one, it felt like regulatory action almost happened, the most lucrative of the overdraft practices got limited circa 2009/2010, and then banks voluntarily toned it down and the regulators mostly looked the other way on things like reordering?
