Similar concept as with shopping, where the selling point is "your agent will do all your shopping for you"

But the wide consensus from most of the industry (including AI people) is that agent shopping is useful for stuff you don't like to shop for (like groceries, computer parts, ad-hoc supplies like paper towels)

But for clothes, and interesting things, where the experience is akin to window shopping, scrolling and imagining what you look like in a particular shirt is actually an integral part of the experience.

Guessing that doordash/ubereats has a part of that appeal, where you get to imagine/visualize the food before you order it.
