May be splitting hairs here, however, in land-based situations where a sales tax is imposed do you tip  based on total bill including tax or just on the cost of the food and beverages?

I only tip on the food and beverage part.

Yes, it's a matter of principle.  Over time those measly $2 add up.  Plus, at least in my area, some restaurants add a 3.5% for usage of a CC or some call it a service charge.

Each customer gets to decide how much they tip, correct?  So why is it distressing to you that others tip based on the total amount?  Are they forcing you to tip on the total?  IMO, if someone wants to double the total and tip on that amount, I don't care.  It's on them.
