A taxi driver will get a short-fare pass that will allow them to jump to the front of the line if they choose to return to MDW for another fare. An Uber/Lyft driver will not. That, plus the fact that a taxi will be waiting for you at the curb and Uber/Lyft would need to drive over from the rideshare staging area, make a taxi a better option.
I would absolutely not rely on an airport shuttle at that time of night, provided the shuttle is even running at that hour.

Because the poster doesn’t want to wait for the shuttle even if it is running.
