isnt the uber vs taxi slightly misleading. part of the reason why some people dont trust taxis is because some charge per mile, so its cost is fully based on if your driver actually knows where they are going, and doesnt have a rigged meter. Some people would pay for the piece of mind of not playing taxi lottery (and also prevents the situation that a taxi driver does not accept a currency, e.g can happen in Macau)

Also, taxi drivers scam the shit out of tourists.
