maybe

Maybe to save paper usage? Save the earth type thing? Not sure... but that is my only guess. Maybe the same reason as to why I can’t seem to find plastic cutlery really anywhere?

Cut costs. Company doesn't need to buy them anymore.

Often , they will give you one if you ask, and if they do, keep it to use it the next time. (I keep one in my purse.)
On the other hand, you may be able to buy a reusable or permanent one on the internet.

I’ve seen knit/crocheted cuffs at craft sales every fall. Might be an option for you. Or maybe you’re a knitter/crocheter yourself? Or know someone who is?

Probably cause they're trying to cut costs. And min wage is increasing...
