The reveal that Margot is actually a prostitute has an extra layer to it. She's not just a prostitute, but a high-end escort, which is likely why Tyler hired her for a non-sexual activity. Many escorts offer services like simply going on dates, or talking. And later it's revealed that the wealthy old man that clearly knows her hired her, essentially confirming that she has a generally wealthy clientele. This makes Margot even more similar to Julian, as like him, she has become very successful with her career, but no longer enjoys it precisely because of how different wealthier clients are. Also adds layers to her final request of Julian, to make her a cheeseburger. The job of a prostitute is to not only indulge in the client's fantasies, but pretend to enthusiastically enjoy them and raise their confidence. All Julian wanted to do was flip one last burger, something that brought him infinitely more joy than eating a cheeseburger would bring to Margot. Her request could be seen as servicing him in a non-sexual way, proving that she's a 'giver' who understands her client's desires and is able to indulge them masterfully. This, coupled with her speech about his dinner service being a pretentious affair that no one actually enjoys, could have made Julian realize that he had become a 'taker' a long time ago.
