At some point, rideshare has to be fully "priced into" the ridership numbers. I think we're approaching that point.

You would hope so! How could transit organizations continue to lose riders when the US population has increased by 20 million since 2010. At some point, we'll add enough transit dependent people by population growth alone.
We've added about 57% of Canada's total population to our population since 2010.
