      looks like the majority of the complains are related to the weight sensors, and you can’t scrap those if you have people stealing - that does just not happen here in any significant amount.

        Eh. The weight sensors don’t seem to be doing much to prevent stealing, companies are still complaining about it; they just make the things a pain in the ass to use
