But... It doesn't fight surveillance pricing? It fucks with the tags, sure, but isn't the pricing handled at checkout?

It is but I can imagine the stink that will be raised when stuff rings up differently than it is priced, especially if it’s mildly expensive stuff that turns out to be 50-100$ more at checkout than on the shelf.
