I'm still confused on what part of the documentation confused you. Like the fact that it keeps going when some users can stop?

Regardless "where did it go wrong?". Well, nowhere. If you think its wrong now, it was wrong always. There was never a point where stripe could magically write your backend integration with it. The 7 lines always referred to client side integration, enough code that a customer could give you money.

Shopify isn't in the same niche as stripe. I don't know if the deal changed, but Shopify payments was built on stripe. It uses stripe under the hood.

Shopify is not a payment handler, it handles making an online shop.

Thanks; I think I see your point, how Stripe perceives it. "Payment handler not an online shop" summarizes it.
