Any responsible user will learn the CVC, like any other password, and then erase it from the card.

That seems like a lot of extra effort for something that's arguably not your opsec problem, but that of the card payment industry.

In the end, you'll always have to enter it on payment websites anyway.

I can certainly remember mine from repeated use, but I can't say I've ever heard of someone erasing it

You can always tell what part of the HN regularly goes outside and interacts with normal people. I’m sorry but “just memorize the CVV and erase it from the card” isn’t something anyone really does. The comment that Google Wallet is more secure is a generally applicable comment.

You can always tell which part of HN does things right and which part does things easy.
