So what? It's a trivial kindness and it takes a few seconds. What else were they going to do with those seconds? It's different if it's fast food, where maximizing people I/O does matter. But that's not the case here. Further if the restaurant asks ahead of time, that's a signifier that they take it seriously. If you have to tell them, it's much more likely you will encounter cavalier treatment of cross-contamination and such. For some people, that really can be life or death.

>It's a trivial kindness and it takes a few seconds We're doing 2200 covers tonight. If you know what that means then you know I don't have a few seconds to spare, and if you don't then you're not really qualified to have this discussion. >Further if the restaurant asks ahead of time, that's a signifier that they take it seriously.
