This acquisition doesn't make any sense to me on the consumer side, parking is literally the alternative to Uber.
But I am totally with you on the AV fleet side. In a robotaxi world, distributed parking garages could serve as staging, charging, and overflow depots, effectively becoming a flexible supply buffer that Uber can price and allocate dynamically between consumers and fleet operations.
