Access.  For most people, it seems hard to get a few thousand sats and easier to use their credt card to buy coffee.

another thing to think about is that when bitcoin will be more accessible to buy because more adopted, the actual value of it, will still put a big obstacle to acquire many bitcoin and then use it, so is not even an adoption problem is just about being lazy for many
You really can't call that lazy, since people aren't really educated enough on this subject. Now how do you educate one who does not want to be educated?

You can't. If they don't want to learn about something they wont, but for the most part the majority of people don't really have much use for bitcoin either now or in the future. I think the only way they might get interested is if it can be spent many places worldwide then people might have some instead of buying euros or dollars when they go traveling etc or if the price continues to rise. If the money naturally earns interest then that would be a big selling point but if it's fluctuating or falling it isn't very good for bitcoin as a currency.
