so in a way you could imagine the cashier-cum-self-checkout-attendant being themselves frustrated to have to help frustrated people limp through those things when they erstwhile could have just done it for them using a professional rig
I’m not arguing labels. I’m saying savings do get passed on. If you don’t pass on savings store across town will do that, advertise everyday low prices, and take your market. That was Walmart. In commodity retail there’s no differentiation to justify a price premium.

yeah i know how that works but there is massive hysteresis in that system; as it stands if you google "does self checkout result in lower prices" you get a bunch of news articles that say "no"

I’m guessing that’s a mix of labor propaganda and bad economic analysis
