I expect the rule that half of the pumps must have an attendant will be repealed eventually, as gas stations* will want to switch more/all their pumps to self serve.

*and when I say gas stations, I mean Costco and Fred Meyer. What share of the market do they hold? More than 50% seems likely.

Costco gas is cheaper and they don't have those annoying ads on the pump. Fuck everyone who was even remotely responsible for bombarding people with even more ads.
