Stores have been spending hundreds of thousands per year on new armed security because shoplifting is falling? Sure... checks out.
Maybe you just notice them now Or maybe they've been told to be more visible Maybe it's because you assumed they must be doing so Maybe it's local Maybe it's local and paranoid

Business owners are regularly extra risk averse and so often overreact You think the bosses that are worried that if people see a cashier sitting will stop coming to the store are making reasonable, informed choices?

Beyond that, you may be conflating the very temporary security a business might have used during protests as them "hiring security" for the longer term task of dealing with shoplifting OR conflated the businesses with not-thin margins getting security with thin margin businesses
