The wink wink benefit of how much you claim on taxes might benefit specific service sectors more than others but you can still pull the wink wink regardless a benefit that a 40 hour on the book worker doesn't have. See below

Server lets say grosses 40-60K in cash tips per year they probably will under report a little

Stripper lets say grosses 90-100K in cash tips per year you would be stupid not to under report.

Totally. Though I think the majority of servers aren't coming close to that on purely cash tips. Maybe if the place is doing everything under the table, but that's kind of dumb for everyone involved.
