I'd say it's conditional. At a certain point, it's on the business themselves. For example, a giant parking lot with one or two cart returns only, in a front corner.
A massive sprawling Walmart parking lot with only one return, and I had to park really far away, and it's super busy and trying to get the cart to the return requires going through multiple rows? I'm a goodie two shoes who will clean up after others, and tries to improve places... but I've got limits with time, effort, and desire to deal with crowds of people in parking lots.
If they have good placement though, then yes, it's absolutely on the individual.
Unless you have a medical reason for not being able to walk to the front to return it, you're still an asshole if you don't.
Not disagreeing with you here, but just for fun, what would you say about a restaurant asking you to wash your own dishes when you're finished with your meal?
What an outright laughable false equivalency
Moreover, considerate people stack their dishes to the side closest to the walkway.
I’d say, if they make it clear that you don’t need to use their dishes, but if you do, you have to wash them, that you’re an asshole if you don’t wash your dishes afterwards.
This is the kind of balanced, nuanced take that will get you absolutely murderlated with downvotes.
"But I have to walk a bit further!" Is not a reason to be an inconsiderate asshole
