I don't think any large tech company is capable of shipping a feature that quickly. Even for a feature as narrowly scoped as this, going from ideation to deployment in a few weeks seems completely unrealistic. There's just way too much involved aside from raw lines of code.

Uber itself might be, the business it is in certainly isn't... Which is kinda dichotomy with many modern tech companies. The platform might be such, but in the end the product they are selling very much isn't.
