It's really another symptom of the digital asymmetry.
It's the same as sign-up being one-click CC details input, but cancelling the account/subscriptions requires you to send a paper mail to America, with parcel tracking, and then The Company has 90 (business) days to "review your case", and they may as well decline it, to which your recourse is... take them to court? In California?
Compare that to the medieval market/bazaar: the seller shows you the goods, you show them the geld; you inspect the item(s), they inspect the payment(s). You either both agree to the exchange, or not. Symmetry.
And no, I'm not advocating traveling back in time. I'm advocating for more symmetry between the selling and the buying sides.
