I don't find this surprising at all. Uber operates across 5 dozen countries (or more) each with different regulations and offerings. For instance, in India you get autorickshaws (called "Autos" sometimes) in addition to cabs as a seperate option. Autos have different rules, billing, driver compliance and safety standards. There are probably a bunch of services around Autos. Similarly, safety regulatons differ in each country, and in some cases teams are forced to act quickly. Having them in separate microservices again makes sense. Same goes for offers, eats etc. 2000 services is not inconceivable for a company operating across the world.
