How is it “insane” logic? A car share has lower environmental impact over individual car ownership. Does it suck compared to alternatives? Sure. But it’s not the same as ten individuals riding their cars, since
it can be used by more than one passenger at the same time
an individual car will still need to drive to pick up a passenger (think parents picking up their kids or spouses and back again)
they take up city subsidized real estate to park their cars (if not, because they are in a suburban sprawl drive way, that’s its own problem already)
Either way, I was bringing it up as an example: Costco can also be accessed by public transit, but it’s not “accessible”. It takes an hour to get there, including ~15 minutes of walking along an area that has a sliver of a sidewalk. Compared to 17 minute by car (traffic not withstanding) or 23 minutes of biking. I do this ride/transit there and Uber back again maybe twice a year, but I wish I didn’t have to.
