I'd say DCC rate is negotiable, just not for the consumer.

Thanks for the recent data point. It looks like it hasn't changed. There have also been historical reports of the quote slip in Singapore and Taiwan, but I don't have recent data points or observations of either. (My last visits to both were right before 2020.)
