Can't you also just drink less and less coffee?

You could, but it is harder to break your existing patterns of behaviour, and easier to slip up if you order a coffee at a cafe, for example.

I have also quit by starting with a teaspoon of instant coffee without mixing it in hot water, then slowly decreasing the amount of instant coffee until zero over a couple of weeks.

Now I know it is so easy to quit, therefore I restart a coffee habit without fear, which means I don’t stay off the coffee!
