What does this even mean? Uber extracts money from you when you take rides. So how is a UI that makes it overly complicated to do that “designed to extract as much money from you as possible”?
Imagine a "tap here to go home" button that automatically calls an UberX Black Elite(tm) car and takes you to your already-designated home location. But if you want to use a regular uber, or uber pool or whatever, you have to tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, don't forget to set your destination, maybe key in where you are right now since location services can be unreliable in some environments? Wouldn't want the car dispatched to the wrong location now would we?
It wasn’t clear before so I edited the comment, my apologies.
It’s possible they don’t support that in your city so you may just see the cars.
