It's the surge multipliers that I am talking about and yes it is trivial to test. During surge I've been with friends all of whom get different multipliers.
Outside of surge everyone pays a published rate.
More importantly, there's simply no way that you would have 10 different prices. Ten people on a corner might be enough to flip that area into surge pricing, but each individual would not get their own personal price.
It's not like this is something which is untestable. If people actually think Uber is discriminating on price between different users, that's trivial to test.
