No one has said that is or was the case.
In this specific situation it's somewhat of a head scratcher because everything about Starbucks is contrary to the circumstances that we know about the event.
Last Starbucks I was in Northampton MA was spit roughly 50/50 between paying and non paying customers with what appeared to be a significant number of local vagrants, some who were paying and some who were not.
I needed someplace to work for a few hours so saw a lot of the traffic, and yes, I bought something because I also needed to pee.
My experience in every Starbucks to date has left me with the impression that coming n and hanging out even without purchasing is a thing of theirs.
Usually with less vagrants though.
I guess that's location dependent.
