Yes? I really dont see the difference here. In both cases they are paid. In non tip environments usually even well better because its a nice salary plus random

  Whether they are paid better or not is obviously irrelevant. Somebody can be paid handsomely and do a crap job if there's nothing to motivate them otherwise. With no tipping better service doesn't buy you much. With tipping better service buys you a larger tip.

    A no tipping environment is usually "optional tips" in my world view. Therefore i can not agree with that.

      Your world view certainly does not encompass Japan then. It is basically not possible to leave a tip there. You'll be chased down the street with the money you 'forgot'. And if you could get past that misunderstanding, through insisting, then you'd be insulting the server by rudely highlighting your spending power, over their presumed economic need.

        US tourist forces tip into pocket of waiter. Waiter fired by owner for taking tip. True story.

        > usually. Obviously there are exceptions.
