    Sure. But none of those things happen on a daily basis. At least, they shouldn’t with a modicum of planning. It still saves probably at least half of the trips

      No, but in aggregate they do happen millions of times per day

        Well yea but I meant for a single person. In aggregate, it still saves probably at least half of the trips.

        You’re not really arguing that getting takeaway and buying food ingredients in bulk is just as bad when it comes to the amount of car trips, right? That seems ludicrous.

          No I’m just saying these delivery services have their place. And they’re at least more efficient (in terms of fuel) than doing pickup yourself. They can group orders and daisy chain their routes.
