Uh, I do this but it's not to protect my thing or some shit, it's to provide more space to the other person, I'm trying to be nice.

Yep, in my experience leaving a bunch of space on the belt can sometimes cause confusion if the cashier gets distracted!

So it’s just kind of polite to use it so everyone isn’t relying on implicit cues.
