Do people actually consciously make a judgement about quality of service when they tip??!

I always just mindlessly add 15-20%. So the whole "tipping incentivizes quality of service" argument has always seemed unrealistic to me.

It's interesting you say that! For some, tipping is almost automatic. But there are definitely folks who vary their tips based on service quality, like rewarding outstanding effort or adjusting for subpar experiences. Your approach highlights how tipping norms can differ widely among people.
