I, personally, believe tipping is detrimental because it encourages preferential treatment. When workers know someone is a generous tipper, they often provide better service to that person than to others who tip more modestly.
In many cases, tipping functions like a form of bribery, incentivizing employees to offer favors or services beyond what is appropriate, which can come at the employer's expense.
It can also create resentment toward customers who don't tip, leading workers to offer poor service and fall short in their duties.
