If that is an issue to you then you either decide to deal with it if the benefits of the establishment(good coffee, convenient location, etc) outweigh the perceived slight to your sensibilites or you decide to do business elsewhere if the insult outweighs the benefits.

Expecting the business establishment to implement a solution that is more to your liking is about as selfish as all those computer users who have caused the problem in the first place.
