Is it just me, or does it seem apocryphal that it requires an 8X revenue jump to get drivers to drive in the snow? To me it seems the market clearing surge ratio during a snowstorm is around 3X. So is Uber being straightforward in saying they are just taking their usual small cut (surge or no surge), or are they taking their small cut and the distance between 3X and 8X as well?
