I think that a big part of that would be because certain types of food are primarily enjoyed taken-away instead of dine-in.
It wouldn’t make sense for a dine-in restaurant to have delivery staff & vehicles (which would sit idle for the most part) given the bulk of their customers dine in.
However this is exactly the problem that a restaurant-agnostic delivery service would solve. The drivers can be shared across all the restaurants in the area which not only brings delivery to restaurants who otherwise wouldn’t have it but it also theoretically makes it cheaper for the usual delivery-focused restaurants because their drivers no longer have as much downtime (as they will now be able to deliver for other restaurants in the area too).
