It shouldn't be all that confusing, given that everyone is simply giving their 'opinions'...as to how they view tipping.

No one is forcing anyone else to do anything and it is still our own individual choice, whether to tip or not...and how little or how much.

However, what's not an 'opinion,' is the math percentage mistake made on the receipt...by the restaurant the OP described.

That it is a mistake, is simply... a fact.

And in spite of some opinions in our country these days to the contrary, I personally believe that while everyone is entitled to their opinion(s)...facts are still facts.
