I don’t think I missed the point at all.
But as for missing a point…. What you write sounds nice (in an insulting kind of way) but it doesn’t reflect today's reality. Tipping may be a bribe and tipping may be a scam but tipping is customary in the US and tipping often provides a major part of a server’s income.
