I agree that neither riders nor drivers have any affinity toward the ride sharing platforms beyond cost and availability. That said, the incumbent in an area typically wins due to the chicken and egg problem of riders and drivers. Didi vs. Uber, Grab vs. Uber, Uber vs. Juno, etc. Lyft's market share is as high as it is because they invented the ride sharing category. Uber's market share is higher because the Uber Black service was present in more cities, so it could use its existing operations staff and rider network (and lobbying presence).
