I'm not so sure. Travis did a great job of building Uber, but he's become a massive public liability. He's getting sued by Google for apparently blatantly stealing billions in IP. Maybe he's innocent, but the optics are bad. He's going to be the public figure on which we will scorn for all those scandals. He's tainted pretty badly - rightly or wrongly - and it just will not go away. He's a little toxic to have around, especially when the company needs to wind up to an IPO - they need the opposite of 'scandals'. I'm weary that there's really nobody that can ever replace a founder, but hopefully they've found a good CEO. Travis's dragging out this board fight is just jeopardizing the company. He owns 10%, not 100%. I don't know if Benchmark are good guys or bad guys in the grand scheme of things, but their position of wanting to Travis to move on is grounded and reasonable I think.
