Well duh. Most businesses don't accept Bitcoin now do they? If I want to pay for my groceries with sats, I have to convert to USD.
Shift was a Visa card, and when you swiped it, Coinbase would automatically liquidate an amount of Bitcoin from your account to cover the USD charge, but you kept your balance in Bitcoin. I spent thousands of dollars with it before they shit canned the whole program.
