The above context was that rounding to 5 cents might be illegal due to laws regarding SNAP debit prices being different than cash prices.

Yea but I guess my thinking is that all totals would just be rounded to the nearest 5 cents, like how they're currently rounded to the nearest 1 cent. So would be the same price whether debit or cash. We already round percentage based taxes to nearest cent, even though it's feasible you could charge someone fractional cents on a debit card.
Really state laws just should be amended to include something like "costs must be the same or as close as possible using the currently available denominations of currency"
Round it for SNAP debit cards too.
