I feel like none of that has any bearing on the conversation, and is obvious. Of course restaurants weren't ready for a pandemic. It's not a revelation, it's part of what I was already saying. They hate these parasitic delivery companies, many just have to use them now, if they're still in business.

You’re saying these delivery companies are parasitic, I am saying that they are providing a valuable service at a reasonable cost, and that the real problem is that these restaurants have business models that are incompatible with takeout and delivery.
Outsourced food delivery services are a large uncontrolled expense which dine-in restaurants just weren't structured to handle. Low liquor sales on take-out and delivery orders are also a huge problem.
