MODERATORS
"it is useful and is used by the vast majority of (I'll assume) 1st world countries"
no, the vast majority of delivery drivers use motor/electric bicycles/scooters/motorcycles
Electric bikes have dozens to hundreds of miles of range, charge fast, have carrying capacity for most cargo.
most countries do all delivery except for something like a refrigerator with motorbikes and e-bikes (and some of them deliver refrigerators with motorbikes and E-Bikes), it works great.
that seems like the obvious way to do it to me, having seen it work in every country except the US, where driving is more heavily tied into ego than utility.
