Ehm, it's pretty much a success where I'm from. Sounds more like a personal opinion.

they back it up with companies rellying heavily on self chekout losing more money

Would be curious if that's actually the case or if it's just the next iteration of the "organized theft is causing billions in lost profit" from last year that was just BS.

Reality and the current narrative a C-level is pushing to get the result they want ain't always all that similar.

Not sure about down vote(s), that's what it says.

Although here's my prediction: this is the start of yet another narrative to justify why food prices must go up (to satisfy investors and line pockets).

Start planting that seed now, "sorry folks, self check out is losing us money, we have to increase prices another 10%!"
