It's more like thanking your waiter at the end of dinner.

I'd love to tip people with claps.

Let's normalize clap tipping.

You know, I don't think you got the right comparison (i do thank the cabin crew), but I think I see your point. I guess it could be seen as clapping at the end of a music performance, I suppose. Not everybody can line up to politely thank the conductor, or the artists, or whatever, so a communal gesture has to be enough. Sure why not.
