It does now. I think initially it had much more caffeine. They did reduce the amount of caffeine after the initial death, I think. A 30 oz cup originally had 390 mg of caffeine. The FDA’s maximum safe level is 400 mg per day. After the initial complaints, they dropped it to 270 mg. And sure, per ounce, that’s probably less than their dark roast, but no one orders a 30 oz cup of coffee. The venti at Starbucks is 20 oz. A “normal” cup of coffee, like you’d make at home, is 8 oz.
