What do you suggest he do instead? Hunt down people or companies that have no banking relationship and put their cash in jars and mattresses instead? That's what businesses do--they put the money in the bank, unless, of course, they have employees they are paying under the counter.
Besides, as far as I'm concerned I'm not here to help facilitate the mint's mandate. If they want me to circulate their coins they can pay me for it--in the meantime I'll order them, deposit them, and eliminate the middle-man.
