In Australia, if by "In upscale establishments only, tip 10 percent", they mean "ridiculous overpriced tourist joints trying to make an extra buck targeting naive and ignorant Americans", then I completely agree. Seriously, nowhere respectable in Australia expects an extra 10%, let alone in the upmarket restaurants where the prices are already high. By all means, throw something extra in anywhere if someone has done something magical and unexpected for you in any business, but just because they've started using template receipts with a "tip" line on there doesn't mean a single place expects it. To suggest otherwise is absurd.
