Re: [w3c/webpayments-methods-tokenization] Early Review Feedback (#26)

Be great to split unaddressed points above into separate issues (and closing this issue) - otherwise, we risk this trying to cover too many things in this one issue.

This is not the view at Mozilla at least - or the market in general, where credit cards are still seeing growth and customers still wanting to use credit cards for online payments [1]. It's likely ~10-20 years before we see credit cards diminish significantly - or where we would be able to drop support from the Web. Incremental security improvements like 3DS and tokenized payments are very welcomed, but I don't think credit/debit cards (and hence BasicCard) are going anywhere for a long long time.
