The other side is also that this is great for card users because we're the price sensitive side of the transaction. I feel like this dynamic is rarely talked about when it comes to two sided transactions. Businesses can't "just pass it to the consumer" is a lot of cases and just have to eat it because businesses don't have that kind of pricing power.

This is how Doordash works on the restaurant side, they can't charge you the customer 20-30% of gross on orders, everyone would stop ordering. So mostly they just have to eat it or lose those sales. Some places choose to lose, some choose to raise prices on DD if they can but mostly they eat it.
