I've gotten burned too many times by "Oh, well, let's see." or "Oh, no, that's just for your convenience, but it will all work out" to not get a little testy when people try those same ignorant comments (or outright lies if they know what's up).
The one experience I had of DCC here was quite simple, he hit the button to decline and was charged in euros, no claiming ignorance or cheating. I was a bit surprised to see it, but I don't use a foreign card here so I would never come across it myself.
