I wonder if this makes the world a fairer place actually. Because it allows people that are attentive and have time to dig through this to save money. The lowest price would be higher without these patterns.

It’s a polarizing idea, but frankly it’s what the world moves too and seem to work on the market. Some people are lazy or don’t have time and pay more money and some people have less time and dig through dark patterns, collect coupons or utilize ramp up subsidizing.

All those people that actually "work" through it will have less of a prime as if these patterns wouldn’t exist.

The question still remains would the world be a better place without these patterns,as it wastes time and acts against user intent.

It’s just a fascinating question to me, because a lot of things are not as simple as they seem of the first glance.
