I think this just further confuses end users and is another reason we should get rid of tipping culture.
Tips are currently serving several purposes in users' minds:
1. earned for great service
2. to make up for lower base pay (tipped min wage is lower in many US states)
3. to help employees who they feel aren't making enough
Now reasons #2 and #3 are no longer true because driers are now fairly (IMHO) compensated through the guaranteed wage. How many users actually know about this?
Sure more money is flowing into the drivers' pockets, but doesn't this just continue to muddle the usage of tips and ultimately cost the consumer more?
