Good news,
They can't just raise menu prices and ban tipping because people are stupid and do math. Which is more expensive a $17 item or a $20 item with tip included.
People will feel that the menu looks expensive and not eat there.
Also tipping does nothing to improve service. maximizing throughout maximizes tips as the % difference between good tips and bad tips is minimal. And giving better service to people does not correlate with good tips.
Also people who tend to tip on service are less severe versions of springs1 where it's either tipping on how attractive the waitress is or how well their key dances.
