I can also see a domino effect happening if one or a few cities start to use this. If a city/group of cities becomes drastically safer after implementing this, it could pressure those that don't have it to opt in as well.

I would agree. Having to watch some of this stuff is a great incentive to make the AI better.

As a native Delawarean who now lives in Boston, I'm hoping this will improve the variety of Dogfish beers offered in the area. I miss being able to see all of their products in one liquor store.

I agree. Especially in a cave where frantic movements could kick up sediment and block visibility. Definitely a pragmatic move but probably the right choice.

That sounds like a highly uncommon scenario. I cashiered full time for nearly 3 years during college at a busy convenience store and encountered people paying with large sums of change < 5 times. Doesn't seem like a good reason to ban an entire payment method.
