If I'm paying them in person and a check is a problem I expect them to tell me and I'll pay them in cash is that's reasonable such as for already-completed work. But I'm not mailing cash or diddling around with other random payment mechanisms.
Nobody is asking you, specifically, to do anything. But your original point was that checks aren't a problem for you. My point is just that as the article describes, for those without a bank account it does pose problems, and so assuming you do have a bank account, "worksforme" is not a very substantive comment, since the article also already acknowledges that.
