that are not clear to the workers; that may not be within the power of the workers to control; that cannot be predicted in advance; and that may vary per worker rather than being offered the same to all workers at once;
You’re literally describing tipping. When a worker starts their shift, they do not know how much they will earn. Tips vary per worker for sexism, racism, ageism reasons, or just plain luck.

That is similar! But this is the employer doing it, not a bunch of uncoordinated people.
If 5 “employers” per day opaquely compensate an employee, then that’s ok.
But if 1 employer, chooses their wage opaquely, then that’s bad.
I don’t get it.
The paper explains this (and isn’t about quite what you’re suggesting). Tens of pages of explanation, it covers it better than I will.
Most restaurants in the world operate without tips.
