Nice options for spending bitcoin OP, you forgot to list on ythe article used bitcoin for lending and trading the common used to spend it.
I cannot find any real reason why you should spend your bitcoins in order to shop online.
In my opinion, Bitcoin has a bigger value than the one right now so it is not worthy spending them for shopping. It is better to keep them in your wallet and consider it as your investment. If you want to buy something online use a stablecoin...
That is an idea of an investor. Yes you are right but Satoshi's wanted the adoption of bitcoin that can be used for somethint OP has stated. Yeah bitcoin has a good value, but knowing it can be spend through shopping is one way to put adoption in place. You have a very close minded to such possibility. Since bitcoin is decentralized, feel free to hold your coins but dont expect other not to used it on something very interesting like these choices.
