Probably not. But I am sure all banks will issue to any standard debit
card eligible customer, as people will generally want them.

are you sure?

The demographic that been tested wants them, but are you sure that that's a
majority. there are certainly many who don't see the need for them and
don't want the risk accociated with something that they will never use

Banks seem to be issuing contactless payment cards without asking
whether people want them, and most people have no idea that there is any
risk associated with them. Whether people want something has little
bearing on whether they *should* want it and that has no bearing on
whether they will get it.
