The snark seems misplaced. This regulation is not about making food delivery cheaper for customers, it's about making sure the restaurants are able to maintain enough margin to stay in business, a notoriously difficult business at that.
Let's assume DoorDash was charging 30% (as was mentioned in the article), on a $30 food order DoorDash would take $9 of that from the restaurant.
I'm happy to pay an extra $2.50 if my local restaurant gets to keep that extra $4.50.
