I didn't intend to draw a direct comparison between the two companies. I was merely highlighting that valuation is not solely based on current day financials (it's actually an estimation of future discounted cash flows). That being said... Comparing present day Amazon with present day Uber is a massively unfair comparison. The former is the tech equivalent of an blue chip.
