> It just removes the price out of the equation.

I too welcome our post-scarcity future :)

This feels like a joke, but deciding on where/how to buy something completely ignoring the price (same everywhere) is refreshing.

There's few similar experiences, perhaps movie theaters before they started monthly plans/membership programs. I can't think of any other day to day instance where price comparison is explicitly rendered moot.

In situations like this the end user typically pays dears for that "luxury'.

Similar to cell phone service in Canada. Prices are carefully negotiated with carriers and as a results Canadians pay some of the highest cell phone fee in the world.
