Then why even frick with bitcoin if the end result is the USD? Am I missing something? Does bitcoin give free blowjobs or something?
Yeah, you're missing the part where you have to use whatever currency is accepted wherever you are. Think of bitcoin as the currency of a virtual nation. These ATMs will exchange currency for you. Why do we even frick with regular ATMs? Because sometimes you just can't use a card or check.
