I actually asked opinions from bros on same topic in the other thread recently.

Personal experience so far so good and have not gotten into any disputes, I Guess for few reasons below:

1. I go to those joints without $88 gimmick, somehow those joints have the mutual understanding that extra is default unless clients outright reject it which is almost unlikely unless it is a proven clean joint

2. I used to ask the damage prior to start, but after a while I just stop asking as I realise in general most MLs tend to accept standard damage. I Guess consider myself lucky as well that I have not stepped into carrot chopping joints.

3. There were occasions where MLs politely said that they will be happier if I can give a bit more after the actions, which usually I will give a bit extra if the service level is much better than expected, this is just to manage their expectation, but sorry I won’t give 2 blue notes for HJ + 4G / 5G roaming

4. It is also a turn off for me when MLs start telling me need to TOP up for extra actions before / during the deeds

But I do agree that best is still to strike damage agreement before extra start, as assumption is always the Mother of all fxxk-ups.
