What’s the point of having the WiFi password for a place?

It’s only useful if you’re in the restaurant, and in which case you’d see the password at the register already

You'd think, but so many places have a "guest" wifi but don't put the password anywhere.

I don't think checking some crowdsourced datasheet just in case someone submitted it and it's still accurate is any more convenient than having to ask an employee, but there are definitely plenty of times the password isn't readily available.

You just ask an employee

Yeah, I know, I literally just said that. I was simply responding to your assertion that there is "no point" in having the wifi password since no, not every place has it "at the register already."
