Since the reaction here seems to be universally negative, I’m curious what people see as the benefit of having several gig worker delivery platforms.

As a thought experiment, we currently have a duopoly for ride share. Would we be better off if Uber were broken up into two platforms?

Obviously having one platform would be bad, since there would be no price competition, but what’s the optimal number? Surely, too many platforms would be bad, as the concentration of delivery workers would be terrible on each app, making the whole system inefficient (setting aside whether one things the system should exist at all).
