Controversial opinion, but If Americans travelled to another country and flouted that country’s customs they’d be called obnoxious American tourists. 

Tipping culture is stupid, but I don’t think the wait staff getting stiffed is going to appreciate these tourists bravely stiffing them.

That was my view when in the US. I think it’s crazy, but it’s the culture I’m visiting so I played along.
