But the police still need to identify and apprehend the suspect (as the article notes). So this covers the edge case where you have identified and arrested a suspect, but they have some form of plausible deniability (despite likely being on video, having distinctive tattoos or clothing, etc)?

So, if there's no panic button activation or alarm signal generation then the spray does not activate?
If system is activated, does it spray everyone that goes through the door including people/customers in the store who exit prior to the perpetrator(s)? The police who come in? When does it stop spraying?
If the perpetrator breaks a window/glass to exit, or there are lots of exit points and not all are covered with spray cylinders you're out of luck?
If deterrence is the main value, it seems like printing and posting up your own scary blue man group sign with similar warnings would get you past the Pareto threshold.

This is correct.
The company tells us a canister sprays a max of 4 seconds once triggered, but it does spray indiscriminately.
Correct, but I think SelectaDNA is intended to be a deterrent for typical 'grab & dash' type thefts.

Wonder about potential liability issues? "Hey, I got sprayed and I am filing a lawsuit claiming chemical contamination!"

How does it know when to spray?

i have some reservations about the viability of this product. If it really is a 4 second window of time from activation to depletion of product, i see that as a large issue in deployment. That is a very small window of time.
Also, it was said that the lab never reproduces the “dna” code but did not state whether Or not it could be reproduce by a third party. If it can be reproduced/reverse engineered by a third party, it loses any value in placing a suspect at the specific scene of a crime. A lawyer would be able to provide reasonable doubt with that bit alone.
Its a cool idea but needs better deployment.

There are better use cases like if a jewelry box is opened on alarm or cash at banks is stolen the dna will be sprayed on the stolen items. If ever retrieved it can be matched to the crime scene. Spraying a burglar is really not that great of an idea.

So the canister is a once use dosage at $300 a pop? You better be selling some high end gear to justify that hit. Not to mention, you have to be aware of the theft to begin with. Then you have to still figure out who the perps are and track them down. Im not sure where this would be very useful even if it wasn’t crazy expensive.

Please see previous answers to some of your concerns.
If you look at it strictly from a cost perspective and not considering the damage a robbery incident will have on the employees and customers, not to mention the challenge it will be to get attract new employees, then it's still a solution to consider.
A typical robbery at a small convenience store will have a cost for the owner of several thousand $ (not less than $ 10.000 everything considered).
However, it's the deterrent that is the real goal - we want the incident not to happen in the frist place.
The $ 300 is a annual fee to replace the canister - also, if there is an incident and the canister is activated, it also needs to be replaced.
Each canister is unique and can not be duplicated by 3'rd party.

Of course this is nothing that hadn’t been anticipated years ago by “Ted and the lab boys”:
