The idea that a human costs less than a credit card reader built in the pump is
an intriguing proposition - are people doing an employee’s worth of damage or
theft to the facility every day? I’m not saying you are wrong, but this seems
counter-intuitive.

I’ve been pumping my gas since I was 8 - I mastered the gas pump early, so Dad
didn’t have to go inside.
I had no idea I was a light industrial facilities technician with 25 years
experience! ^_^
I’ve been so happy to see the full-service stations in Japan being converted to
self-serve to dispense with an unnecessary visit to the cashier.
The idea of “minimum service” as a tag value might be a good option: and
removal of semicolon
fuel:service_minimum=yes
fuel:service_self=no
fuel:service_full=yes
or something
