I get your point, it's the argument of the disengaged pseudo-citizen that just doesn't want their convenience bothered. We have those here too even though it's a bit different here. A good case could be made for cash payments receiving a discount, i.e., less the payment processor fee. You may not pay $11 when you pick up a $11 item that way either, but it might place you to never know by how much it will be that way, i.e., maybe $10.75 instead.
I would even advocate that in the US we require taxation to be handled that way too because you are right, most of our citizens can't do basic math, let alone in their heads, or even really care; but if the price tag had to be the taxed price and you then get a discount if you pay cash, it would be a far better situation. There has never been a better time to do this with digital price tags.
The inherent problem is that the likes of the masses are hard to organize, let alone corral and focus on a single thing and everyone thinks they are smarter than the average.
