I've seen that before, but it's what I was referring to as "recruitment tactics." It seems pretty clear that the primary thing these people were trying to was to recruit drivers (and canceling drivers they'd already spoken to), not systematically disrupting Lyft service. For one thing, the scale is just too minuscule to matter. In a market where Uber is doing a million rides per day, 5,000 rides over months is nothing.[1]
That being said, disrupting availability on sensitive days (ex. holidays) could make a lot more sense in terms of sabotaging a competitor, which is why I was keen to see evidence of that. Unfortunately the link you provided has no evidence of holiday cancellations.
