It's also a loophole for people like Trump to take advantage of because a tip isn't owed, it's voluntary. So he'll be able to get away with not paying his bills by promising some tip and then reneging on that promise for whatever reason and then only take the reputation hit rather than that plus maybe a lawsuit if they pursue it.
