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.

Most of my European friends make a conscious judgment, me included.

But in the US (I guess Canada, too?), tipping seems like a social norm. I never felt embarrassed for not tipping in Europe, but in the US, I feel always uneasy when I pick 0%.

I thought Europeans usually include a gratuity directly on the chit? 
It’s been a while but I used to program POS systems. Was working with a German system and that’s the way they kind of had it built in. I had to deprogram the things before programming them.

Yup at least and Italy they do so. But I think it's the service fee that goes to the waiter's salary? Idk tho. 
 But in Bulgaria (that is Europe too) the tip is not included in the bill so it's up to you to decide whether you want to tip and how much.
