Have you considered what happens to that business if DoorDash is forced to reclassify its workers as employees? A delivery business is particularly sensitive to classification because of all the expenses that drivers incur, namely those associated with the use of their vehicles.
Do a Google search for "delivery driver class action" and look at the Glassdoor reviews for some of the companies in the space, this one included. Instacart has already been sued and it's only a matter of time before all of the major players are forced to defend their models in court too. You don't just get a free pass because you build an app, raise a bunch of money from VCs on Sand Hill Road and try to position a basic delivery service as a technology-based communication platform.
