You're down playing the social and anchoring forces. For instance, you're in a long line and you're prompted to pay, the no tip or tip less than the default options is always more difficult. These default options are used by employers as a way to under pay staff. If these default options were made clear before the purchase there would be a pressure for businesses to reduce or remove those options. As it stands, the default options is a strong anchor.

I'm not from North America but I live in Canada now. I find tipping is ridiculous. But if I'm going to be forced to tip it should be made clear to me before the transaction starts. I'm not saying this is the best solution. Tipping should obviously be abolished but I'm just answering this question.

Lol, I'm not saying this is the ultimate solution. I'm answering the question. I also think tipping should be abolished.

Tipping, the default tipping options should be displayed next to the price of the item.

Whoever filled the patent obviously didn't consider the optics of this. I'm in the market for a new car and was considering a Ford. This will factor into my decision.

Agreed, the stock market is just an easily measurable metric.
