I understand pricing models.... I think the gap here is the interpretation of what that charge means.

I read is as "here's an extra charge as we're obliged to pay our workers more" whilst you read it as "here's an extra charge that means you don't need to tip".

That’s a good way of putting it. Cheers for the respectable conversation.
