In a "perfect world", that would be OK... not my preference,

starts expecting tips/bribes before performing expected services.
In the worst of cases, I've seen cases of staff "bending" the
rules for guests with a $5.00 in their hand. At one DR resort
you might not get a sailboat (even if reserved) if you didn't
have the right "tip" handy. That might be the extreme case,
but I have seen it....

Another thing to consider is that some AIs enforce the "no tipping"
rule so strongly that employees may be fired for accepting tips.
