Some customers of these would fit this, but I suspect the vast majority of the valuation is from delivering food to people who could pick it up themselves if they had to.
That's just bullshit. You don't know how far away the restaurants are and how many people don't own cars or if they do, the traffic back and forth and wait time would be more than a guy on a motorbike.
People want to insert morality and virtue in every stupid thing. Cold showers, delivery or not, wake up times. Get a grip and sort your own shit while other people decide to use and pay for other services that you might not.
It's fine to criticize cost or experience but to pretend you're superior for your choices... Ridiculous.
It's one thing to pay the reasonable costs (including a living wage) for things you want, it's another to demand a massive company enslave those with little other choice to provide you what you want at a low price.

But they had to before deliveries were so widespread and common. Sure pizzas have been delivering for decades but I think a fraction of the population was simply better prepared and would always have something ready to heat / easy cook whenever they wanted.
I think the offering somewhat induced the lazyness.
Why do you think that people are simply capable of fetching the same food themselves?
