You don't know how much a map costs to make, nor how much it would cost to maintain long term. Nor the cost of amortizing over 30 years. You're just making claims with nothing to back it up.

> LOL! Not even close to true. “We can do it” != “we can do it without burning billions of dollars per year”

"We can do it" = closest thing to solved. No one can say without a doubt we can do it for the other parts.

> How is that not deception in your mind?

You used "fraud". Fraud requires damages to a party. All the VCs have asked these questions and were given answers satisfactory enough to invest.

Here's a basic one they can tell investors: the top 10 cities for ride-sharing comprise 70% of the total market. It will cost $X to map and permanently have access to the vast majority of the market. We believe in addition, we can induce demand so this 70% of the market becomes a massive multiple of the current market.

If you're going to be this snarky, at least do some basic research.
