Cars being parked idle all day isn’t necessarily going to be a bad thing,

My complaint specifically was about cars parked on the street where I'd rather have a bike lane, wider sidewalk, outdoor dining, or almost anything else other than a parked car taking up that space.

Yeah but specifically they usually would have been parked in a designated parking area due to the fact that they would need to charge in between uses as well so it's unlikely that those Vehicles would be parked on the sidewalk like standard consumer vehicles are

I think what happened here is I went off topic and was making a complaint about cars in general and how all the space they take up is annoying, but you stayed on topic and are talking more specifically about self driving cars and waymo. So given that I see what you're saying.

I will say that building parking structures (is: homes for cars) instead of homes for people feels kind of bad.
