This one has a reasonably settled answer, so here it is. The distinction that resolves most of these threads is between what is true on average and what is true for one person. Both are real; they answer different questions and get quoted as if they were the same one.
Asked to pay by a method with no recourse, by a supplier I had used twice before without being asked, which is what made me stop.
What I am after is how people are thinking about the trade-off between reversibility and privacy, because you cannot have both.
Practical detail welcome, however dull — the duller the better.

No disagreement, though it depends on where somebody is starting from, and this thread has been assuming a starting point nobody stated.

Can confirm. Same sequence, different timescale. I had assumed I was the exception until I read this.
Adding the clinical framing, because it changes how the question reads. The version of this that has an answer is narrower than the version being asked. Narrow it and it becomes tractable; leave it broad and the thread will produce nine confident and incompatible replies.
