I agree. They should be considered employees, and be given the same benefits as employees. However, Uber doesn't agree, it says all of its drivers are contractors. So I'll continue saying that Uber's employees aren't the ones doing the driving, at Uber's own admission.

I think you misread the comment you replied to. They were saying they’re not employees, same as content creators for YouTube or independent iOS devs.

Parent agreed with your equivalence, but not your conclusion. Your conclusion was that they were both not employees, while the parent's conclusion was that they were both employees.
