I prefer price transparency because it helps me decide whether to order directly through the delivery app or via the restaurant. The extent to which I support the restaurant is a factor in my purchasing decisions in addition to the total cost. Having good restaurants that are profitable near where I live is helpful for maintaining the community (and good for property values).

But you would judge the high fees and go somewhere else thus harming the business. Capitalism isn’t perfect but this is pretty elementary stuff. Information asymmetries are why price is so important: it encapsulates everything.
