This to me is a nothing burger. I’m far more interested in transparency from hotels and airlines and other businesses with significant fees hidden until the final checkout.
Rental cars too. Bumps up the price nearly 50%.

I wonder if one of the rental companies took a stand and provided transparent honest pricing whether customers would be savvy enough to reward them for it.

I do wonder whether leaving the sales tax out of the price has the effect of keeping the rates relatively low, since you're reminded of it every time you buy something. Shopping in the UK, you don't really think about that 20% tax rate because it's always there, but never seen.

I was thinking the opposite. LOL
If there were too towns next to each other, and one price was 5% higher because of taxes, and the town lost business to the next town, maybe that would be incentive for them to lower their local taxes.
