The 210 satoshi incentive reflects minimal transaction costs, not the merchant's full savings. Businesses realise substantial reductions in fees and fraud, offering the primary incentive to accept Bitcoin.

Exactly. Offering to donate a mere 210 sats at the expense of a customer still being charged for the full expenses of fees and fraud, etc. seems like a slap in the face.

I understand your perspective. The idea was to circumvent these very issues of fees and fraud, making a token donation feel... less than ideal, I imagine.

Have you considered 210 sats could be all core deserves?
