Why not extend that out further. Explicitly charge their delivery costs, their production costs, their management costs, their payroll costs, etc, etc?

Eventually we'll just clamor for merchants to just put a single price tag on everything and not worry us about how much of each item is going to all of their various costs.

Because those other costs aren't avoidable by customer choices, and they don't go towards "reward" programs that distort the payment market and push everyone to high cost systems.
