Even accepting your biased wording ("deliberately blurring"), you failed to state what exactly is wrong with Uber competing with taxi companies (in my corner of economics, competition is good).

Is this a Bruce Lee thing, an argument without an argument?

Again: the taxi companies Uber is competing with are bound by regulations that Uber isn't bound by; for instance, Uber's business model is based on a 20% surcharge which taxi companies are forbidden by law to apply.
