Delta can add more or larger planes any time they want to/deem it to be in their best interest.

And I would argue that it's not that Uber's supply expands as the price increases, but that demand slacks. Or at the very least both.

Same with Delta dynamic pricing. Just like it does with their cash tickets.

After all, there is no guarantee that you will EVER find an award ticket you actually want. Even if you pay for Gary's booking services, he does not guarantee you that he can find anything you actually want.
