I think you're missing the point I was trying to make. It's not that the self-driving car on demand wouldn't work for a certain segment of the population (at least once the bugs are worked out); it's that it'd be an
incremental change, not a disruptive one. To the user, it's no different than calling a cab. Maybe a bit cheaper or quicker, maybe causing unemployment among former cab drivers, but it doesn't fundamentally change things.
In internet terms it's the difference between having an internet (disruptive), and doubling my speed while cutting my monthly bill in half: doesn't really change things, just saves me a few bucks.
