Uber is global, so I think most visitors and tourists default to using Uber. I wouldn't be surprised if the non-Uber players in every rideshare market attract a totally different demographic - more local, more savvy, maybe daily commuters who tend to "comparison-shop" each trip.
If this is the case then if Waymo is consistently cheaper than Lyft, it would totally suck the air out for Lyft. Whereas, Uber would still see use despite charging a little premium, for the reason I stated in the beginning.
