I see your point, but I have no problem with tipping, as it is a real income enhancer for jobs that are necessary for the industry, but don’t pay well enough to attract quality people without tips.
In any case, it should be wholly voluntary. Quality waitstaff understand this concept completely. Entitled turds like this one, and there are more and more of them, might spit in your food.
I never have food delivered, just for this reason. There is no “customer service” involved, and the people doing it often understand that completely. It is different with quality waitstaff, who DO understand the concept of “customer service” and deliver it. For them, a meager tip is not reason to spit in food, but to reinforce their desire to serve the next customer in such a way that they are likely to get a good tip.

But that’s the thing - it doesn’t need to be.
In Japan, waiting jobs are paid well enough to attract quality people. This hasn’t resulted in huge prices.
