Worshiped? What country do you live in? The biggest argument I see for it is 'its absolutely bullshit but some jobs that's almost all they make'
I don't think I've ever, in my 41 years here, seen a single human being say it's an amazing system.
You've never gotten into an argument with someone who says they tip their mechanic and doctor and thinks everybody should do the same?
There absolutely are people in the US who believe that everybody you interact with as a customer should be tipped because they believe all the propaganda from the likes of Readers Digest and Wall Street Journal. They believe everybody must be tipped because covid and "How are those jobs any different from being a server? It's a SERVICE!" It's beyond ridiculous. I worked in retail and food service (not tipped) for a long time and would have been embarrassed to have to resort to begging for tips.
Tip culture worship is real. I've run into plenty of people online and offline who think that tips should be mandatory everywhere, of all walks of life.
People tipping their doctor? I don't even pay my doctor, my insurance does that.
Yup, I've seriously gotten into arguments with people who insist on tipping the doctor.
