Here's a thought...
If I walk into your Starbucks Store, and order a Venti Carmel Latte with 1 teaspoon of expresso in it... and have an extensive conversation with you about how I really don't like the coffee much, and how I really only like a tiny tiny tiny little tiny bit of coffee in that really quite big cup... and then you offer to make me a caramel milk instead and I say, no, thats ok, please just put the one little teaspoon of coffee in for me, and that would be lovely...
CHANCES ARE I DON'T WANT TO SIP MY DRINK HALFWAY DOWN THE ROAD AND DISCOVER THAT YOU HAVE GIVEN ME A FUCKING FULL STRENGTH LATTE.
PAY A-FRICKIN-TTENTION.
$5.05 for an undrinkable latte = One really irritated and potentially EX-regular customer.
That is all. Thanks for your time.

Damn you, Starbucks!
