I agree. Private enterprise has built some incredible data set. Google Street View is an incredible public good, and who knows what would be built on top of it if it truly were public, rather than owned by Google. But some things can'

Violent crime is not what makes me unsafe. Violent negligence is: 8.35 per thousand as of 2019[0]. If you want to demonstrate that NYC is less safe (and it may well be), focus on the high risk factors, not the salient ones. [0] https:/

If I'm understanding correctly, it's worth zero iff you attribute $0 of value to the delivery. DD's value prop is that they deliver. If you don't want that, then yes it's probably not for you.
