Yup. Cannot disagree with you. But thats in areas where hackney plates are limited. Examples of where it works are quite clear. But for it to be clear you have to grasp the nettle and realise that Hackney's on radio and Private hire are actually serving the same market. Once that assumption is accepted, then examples are indeed numerous.
Firstly, it seems to work in all the delimited areas. Secondly it seems to work in areas where there are massive radio circuits.
In the limited plate areas, the rural gap is usually filled by PH. It could be outcrops of a big town circuit, or, as is presently the norm, by small PH operators with up to two or three cars.
The point is, that if the delimited ranks are full, people go where the work is.
