You're the 2nd person to point out 2.13 to me. It was 2.01 when I was doing it - same dif, still barely enough to cover taxes.
I don't mind split checks so much, but those people rarely tip worth a damn as you point out.
What you call sqatters we called campers. I do that to other people, but I tip to make up for it (I think I cover it)
Oh yes, people that brag about their tipping prowess totally suck. They expect you to ass-suck both them and their date to the exclusion of all else, blame you for the line at the bar and the mistake in the kitchen, then leave you a shit tip saying "Well you sucked, but you didn't swallow."
Tipping is not for superior service, it's just kindness for the most part. I swear I got better tips when I gave shittier service.
