Yeah, I really don't understand how people don't get this. With a 10m block time, Bitcoin was never intended for typical retail... BY DESIGN!
It is P2P, not retail. Certainly some retail applications could easily use it... like buying a car. But, most couldn't. No one is going to stand in the grocery store at the register, waiting 10m to a half hour or more, for their grocery purchase to clear. It doesn't matter if the fee were only 1 Satoshi.

This is the reason every attempt so far has failed. BCash. BSV. Any other on-chain shitcoin. No measurable retail adoption.
I don't think the example was a grocery store.
Did you mean to change the subject to how you're against Bitcoin grocery stores (which you correctly assume I support), or are you just going along with a the thoughtlessly-harass-whoeverlovesDigit bandwagon?
A layer two solution that handles all the micro payments throughout the day, with an on-chain settlement at the end of business (daily/weekly) is very feasible and one node can handle all the micropayments of a massive shopping mall
