I'm sorry you misunderstood my point of view as an American who has emigrated out of the US (lived overseas in various places throughout my career but have finally been able to land in one spot to call home).

I have, however, lived in some very large international cities which skew perspective because they have shops open 24/7.

The town we live in all the large markets are open on Sunday in the summer, but that's out of necessity because we go from about 65k residents to 350k. They are open shorter hours, but man it's busy.
