Bitcoin Cash still has a block time of 10 minutes, which is makes it terrible for micropayments.
To be fair, any cryptocurrency is terrible for micropayment unless it has very fast block time (e.g. 10 seconds). People and cashier don't want to wait 10 minutes (or even 30 seconds) to wait a transaction confirmed.
With 2-of-2 multisig address where both merchant and customer park the same amount fast block time isn't necessary, even 24 hours blocks will work just fine.
IMO it's not practical usage, besides if we bother use 2-of-2 multisig, we better using LN.

faster blocks just means they are easier to revert, and likely there will be competing blocks doing it accidentally given a small window to propagate the new block.
no matter the block time, what counts is accumulated work on top of the block for the cost backing its finality
True, i've seen few altcoin with very fast block time have very high rate of orphan/stale block. But i was strictly talking about making micropayment more practical.
But yet small enough to be able to fully sync the blockchain in 1-3 days.
Only if you live in 1st world country with decent hardware
