Why do some people go out with no cash despite knowing they'd end up having to borrow cash anyway?

In my country it's now easier, faster and common to pay through your mobile using UPI system of payment, so that excuse does not work anymore here. I myself many times don't carry cash when going outside, my phone is enough for any sort of payment.
Everyone accepts it, and you can make payment digitally 20 times a day from INR 1 to the limit of INR 1,00,000 per day, and that too without any charges or deduction. And it is executed in real time (instantly). You can use it to buy anything & anywhere, be it street vendor, bus ticket, cab, shop or showroom purchases, pay electricity/gas bills, or transfer to any individual, even beggars accept payments from it. Now it is being used in rural areas also.

@Casheyane Although here also it's not 100% cashless transactions taking place, but India is moving towards cashless/digital economy[b]*[/b]. It's safer here to hangout with someone without carrying cash, we do it often here without problems.
My father still uses cash also (along with UPI), sometimes he gives me cash to purchase something, I keeps the money for emergency purpose and do his purchases by using UPI on my mobile. I don't remember, when last time I used my ATM Card to withdraw cash, I have even forget my ATM PIN.

It's weird cause I almost never think about my cash on hand. I 99.99% of the time use a card to pay for things or prepay online. If I need to send someone money I can do that with my phone too. So when I actually need to use cash it's like a sudden problem for me. I do keep some cash on me though, but it's not a priority.

It's in the older generation too, believe me. Just more of the younger ones have no cash and rely on the trick more.
Lot of them are just taking advantage because people let them. It's not good behavior.
