And tips shouldn’t be split between all the workers. That’s the purpose of a tip...to reward the particular person who takes care of you.

I certainly agree with that. A crappy waiter should not be rewarded for the good service of another waiter.

Some places used to provide the busboys with 20% of his waitress' tips, as he hustles just as hard on a busy night and is part of the dining experience.

And that person couldn't have given you good service if the busboy didn't clean your table first. If the bartender didn't mix your drink quick and just right. If the cook didn't handle your stupid complicated order correctly, despite the waiter's Doctor-level handwriting. Most waitstaff I've known have no problem with sharing tips.
