Nope.
Tourist traps will remain tourist traps - they don't expect recurring business so there's no fear of retribution from one-time fleecing tourists

And so long as Visa doesn't penalise recidivist tourist trap merchants by kicking them out (or even whole acquirers like Global Payments and Bank of China) MC long will DCC reign.
