You do realize the daily gratuity goes to more people than just your room steward and waiter?

Wait if you pay the gratuities ahead of time there's no need to tip the servers at dinner right?

The gratuities go to more than just the wait staff. They cover those you see and those behind the scenes in the kitchen, the room stewards and others.
