Expanding to new markets and being a bottomless money dump are not mutually exclusive?

Waymo has raised 5.5B so far. How much does it cost to add a market and how long will it take to recoup those costs?

How much are Waymo vehicle operational costs vs rider revenue? How long do Waymo vehicles last?

Even with this announcement, we do not know if Waymo has a clear path to profitability.
