Not sure if we're agreeing and saying exactly the same thing here, but Uber's business model is to get suckers who are bad at math to own the cars. Uber's business model does not work if they have to own their own cars. Self-driving Uber doesn't work because Uber would have to own the cars and therefore has to cover vehicle insurance, vehicle depreciation, and so on out of its own margin.
