Like i said, taxes change depending on your city/county/state/year. You wont know them all in every place you go. If you’re visiting an old friend in another state and go out to eat with them at a restaurant, how are you going to know how much the taxes will be on the bill?
I’m not sure why you think tax is the issue here.
Tax rates change. Its can be a different rate depending on city/county/state/year youre in.
If its all on one single bill, all you know is the total. It doesn’t tell you the tax per item.
No one wants to calculate it. Its easier to just get separate checks and have the establishment do the math for you.
But the taxes don’t change when you’re splitting up a check and have no bearing on the extra work the wait staff has to do.

Restaurant ain’t moving, why you focusing on changing taxes?
That’s irrelevant to the conversation. The conversation was about how splitting a large ticket is a pain in the ass for the employees.
Knowing the taxes doesn’t factor in at any point.
Are you just ignoring a reasonable cause for that? Lol
People split the bill because its too much math to figure out how much you owe someone if they pay the entire bill.
