People want to expand it because some people, and I don't think this is uncommon at all--let me be blunt, I see this in this thread right now--want to feel in control of other people.
I mean, that's pretty rational on Uber's part, but they pushed back on it for a surprisingly long time before giving in.
The desire for control is another documented reason that people like tipping, yes.
Yeah. I was surprised about that from Uber. I wondered if it might have been a long play for their self driving car strategy. I don't credit that company with an abundance of concern for social issues.
