It’s not that no-tipping policy won’t stick; it’s that it’s allowed by the tax code. https://www.dol.gov/agencies/whd/state/minimum-wage/tipped https://www.dol.gov/agencies/whd/state/minimum-wage/tipped The code allows for a lower minimum wage when tips are involved. Getting rid of this complication in the tax code would make owning restaurants harder, but fix other societal issues. Can’t say it’s be an easy decision or trade off to make - a lot of restaurants wouldn’t be able to stay in business and those who like eating out would have a lot less and more expensive choices.
