Or even if you're not in a city, drive a little bit and pick it up. I have that many options within 5-10 minutes' driving distance

Some people's don't have cars? They want to stay and focus on their homework or chores or anything? How about those with 30 minute breaks who order and time it to land within their break time? How about those who are who are sick/disabled/less fortunate and unable to get to locations easily without extra effort?

Only the last one of those is mildly valid. The rest are not good enough to tip the scales to make it reasonable.

Even if you don't have a car, you should probably be saving up for one instead of blowing money on Doordash. Grocery delivery would be more practical.
