IMHO, the model from TFA is based on shame and guilt. When you look owner in the eyes, and there are people everywhere around you, and hot girls, you can't really pay a penny for 3 dollars worth of latte.
What do you pay? Well, you don't want to look cheap, but you don't want to give him $100 bill either. So you usually end up taking a five or ten dollar bill out of your pocket as a round number. You pay for creativity+latte+tip, you think. What a creative guy, why not give me $7 or $2 bucks over the latte price? But you do it out of fear of looking cheap and like an asshole.
However, on the intertubes, there is no one looking at you. Fuck, you can even use a made-up name! Hence the family breeding to avoid shame by not being cheap goes out of the window since no one sees you as being cheap.
I'd really like to see my point proven wrong since I plan to do this kind of payment and I wonder if it's a good way to seggregate market.
