That's what they do:
"Ted Anderson said he went into a restaurant in Japan to find it "cash only and staff calculating the totals on paper".
The issue is that many people don't carry cash at all these days (at least here in the UK)

Yes, I get it, paying with card is easy and kinda nice, but if cash goes away entirely, we have an even bigger problem. So I will be the one who uses it in the hopes to have a miniscule impact on it not going away as fast.
Same thing goes with firefox and not letting the webkit mafia take over.
The worst I see these days is people who carry neither cards nor cash, just their phones because "anyway I have Apple Pay/Google Wallet for contactless"... and then they use that to buy an electronic ticket on their phone for their commute to work. The day they lose their phone far from home they are instantly stranded and homeless, and they can't call anyone for help because they don't actually know anyone's phone number.
In my (thankfully) long-ago days as a young person working retail, I had a coworker who could not figure out 10% of a given quantity even with a calculator.
