[tyingq]

This was the only spot where I said anything about specific competitors: It seems they will be fighting off competition (car companies, Waymo, etc) that didn't have to spend money on lobbying

The bigger thing, though, is that you keep implying that I said Lyft was somehow in a better spot. Now you're noting I never mentioned Lyft.

Nothing I'm saying is affected one way or other by Lyft. Pointing out that they have the same problem doesn't change the rationale.
