Why not pay hospitality workers a halfway decent wage, and leave tipping for exemplary service? That's how it works in the rest of the developed world.

Because the US is a failed state hiding under a developed world costume.

Some cities require minimum wage paid toward service employees. This is about $20/hour before tips. They don't lower their tip expectations because, as you might expect, greed is a thing. You will get treated worse if you don't tip
