Like the exact “gratuity” situation is well known to businesses who do public/private work, and it’s just universally considered to be—at best—clearly unethical.

To be clear, the exact "gratuity" situation here is a public official walking into a business that they constructed a multimillion dollar biased contract offer for and saying "I need money." (that's literal!) This is so far beyond any "oh no should we split the check?!?" it's insane.
