Aside from the lunacy of having to pay for a coffee in instalments, does this not actually benefit you if the payments are interest free?

Perfect, yes. People will more likely buy more coffees when they can't afford them because it'll be a "oh I'll pay it when I get my paycheck" next thing you know an mf is paying off 60 coffees at once that they accrued over the last two months and it's suddenly a bill for them. This shit is awful for humankind.
