It remains that these tags are closely tied to predatory pricing practices

In what way?

Yes, there are predatory pricing practices; but my point is these tags are unrelated to that problem. They're just a display. A non-networked display that's not capable of setting/displaying a per-customer price, as they can't even be changed remotely.

They're no more related to predatory pricing than paper tags are.
