Yeah, Uber criticism seems to be an example of the old &quot;perfect being the enemy of good&quot; problem. Uber is extremely far away from being even remotely perfect, but the old system was built on a system of corruption, cruft, and abuse, it was mostly horrid for everyone except a tiny few. The fact that only now old taxi companies are scrambling to change and improve dramatically is a stunning indictment of the existing complacency and lack of competitive market forces.
