Imagining the counterfactual (“typical, the most polished part of this service is the payment screen!”), it seems hard to win here.

No one should even notice the payment flow. This isn't Stripe where the polish on the payment experience is a selling point for the service. At Google, paying for something should be a boring but quick process that works and then gets out of the way.

It doesn't need to be good. It just need to be not broken.
