I have never used sugar in coffee, but I assume black means only that
one does not want cream. I know that around here at places like Starbucks,
it makes a difference in how full they fill the cup - they leave room for
cream if you are going to add it. Or some places add cream if you want
it. (I always drink it black, no sugar.)

I think whether one adds sugar is an entirely  different matter.
