Cool. That's a great way to orange-pill merchants into appreciating Bitcoin - hopefully to the point of wanting to pass some or all of those savings onto their customers in order to attract more Bitcoin for themselves. (then, the question will be: does Square make it easy for merchants to choose to do so? e.g. option to automatically provide a 2% discount to the customer for purchases in Bitcoin). Ultimately, a proper incentive structure should result in all participants benefiting by transacting in Bitcoin rather than fiat.

I don’t think the merchant would pass on the savings to a customer. Mostly because it’s a tiny amount (2%) for the customer but that’s a huge amount across all transactions for the merchant. So the incentive would already be there for the seller to accept bitcoin like what Steak ‘n Shake has done. And I believe most Bitcoiners want to support the circular economy more than save 1-2% on a transaction so we are aligned as well.
