i never thought of it conceptually like that, but that makes a lot of sense for a cash register. you split the customer's cashflow stream into the store's. or vice versa

anyone else feel like they need to stare at their fingers a while too after learning what @idiomaddict@lemmy.world has been teaching us?

    That’s a really good way of thinking of it, but I can’t take credit for it, splitting money never occurred to me. I do often feel like I need to stare at my fingers when I think about etymology though.
