Even though the you already have to use the PIN at an ATM.

No idea why there’s such a big functional difference between “credit” and “debit” cards.

I don’t think there is in terms of process, I think payment handlers just add a higher charge for processing credit card payments, which is why stingy retailers dislike them.

I’m happy to be corrected though.

The only time I’ve been prompted to enter a PIN is when using the same card as a debit card vs a credit card.
