It should be set at 18%, 20%, and 25% with no option for tipping less.

You are, in essence, giving corporations a 18-25% discount on wages.

Exactly. Which would make this theoretical POS even more consumer unfriendly then OP's 2%, 4%, and 6% choices.

More people might be inclined to tell the cashier to remove the tip when it's higher, but if it only shows percentages then people might be inclined to just hit the smallest one instead of doing the math to figure out how much they're tipping.
