That's not what I was saying. Granting the permission to uber.com requires granting the permission first to the browser, then configuring and trusting the browser's own internal per-site restrictions. I don't trust this as much as the more fine grained and configurable OS-level restrictions.

Uber are the worst for abusing this kind of stuff and for dark UX patterns to get you to subscribe to Uber One. I’m repeatedly asked SEVERAL TIMES EVERY TIME I USE THE APP. and there is no way to pause or opt out from this nagging. They even abuse the push notifications to try and sell me stuff as well.

You know what doesn't do that? The local cab company when I call them to ask for a pick up.

I feel like I have much more control over "when" I share my location, if permission is granted to "uber app" not "uber domain".

All the reasons I come up with, can be easily argued "you can do the same thing in a browser". But still, it is not the same.
