Are you referring to a previous article that says Uber Eats is just to juice up Uber's revenue numbers for their investors?

I recall that Uber ride-share accounting doesn't use top line as revenue (only the cut), but for Uber Eats, they are allowed to use the whole order as revenue.

That's nuts, they probably pay out even more of the total amount for eats orders.
Not sure why downvoted. Eats orders require Uber to pay a driver AND a restaurant.
