No it’s a bad example as uber had solid unit economics. Uber is more Akin to Amazon.

I would love to see the data to support the idea that Uber had solid unit economics during their expansion.
State your priors so I can determine whether you are qualified to have this discussion.

"I know these facts, they just go to a different school. I'd bring you to them if your Mom would let you leave the neighborhood, but you're just a little boy".
I mean surely to make this claim, you aren't just making it up, surely you've done the research. In that case, what's so hard about sharing facts which you already know? I'm not asking you to put in a bunch of effort pulling financial statements and analyzing everything, I assume you've already done that because I doubt you'd make the claim otherwise.
