That's clever. Whenever I get asked to watch another person's stuff in a cafe, I wonder to myself why they think I'm so worthy of their trust. Recent laptops which suspend quickly and lack delicate hard drives are easier than ever to move with you at all times, so the problem is easy to obviate.

Because by asking you, they are trusting you. By not asking anyone, they have to trust every single person around.

Plus, if their stuff goes missing, they can be pretty much certain who the culprit is, in terms of offering some kind of description to the police.
