What? Uber Pool was never big, and I believe is now completed retired. Are you sure you know how Uber works?
> An Uber (or Lyft) driver who is able to make an average five deliveries (whether it be people, food, or parcels is immaterial to this discussion) in 30 minutes versus an ordinary taxi cab driver who is able to make an average three deliveries in 30 minutes would be correctly said to enjoy economies of scale.
This is not economies of scale. This is just more volume. It would be economies of scale if Uber paid their drivers hourly wages, so their cost per ride went down because they did more rides per hour. But they do not, they pay them a cut of the ride.

I'd love to see your business.
