You can't take your starbucks point off of starbucks though and they forbid transfers, both for legal reasons, so what would be the advantage here?
I just gave it as an visual example. Other app developers might not be constrained by legal reasons when it comes to transferring out.
Also as an app developer I might prefer using open source standard and protocol rather than 3rd party solution like Stripe (or some other closed integration).
In this vision each app would be a small bank for its users and for their purchases.

I see, you mean that if they want to provide custodial services, they can use this open source payment/account software. What applications do you imagine would benefit from ecash mints over another open source payment/account software that uses a protocol like lnbits?
