True purpose of Parking Lots
Can an expert with an OFFICIAL stance (not looking for random opinions) please respond to the following about these cursed things:
When EXACTLY should the Parking Lot *landmark* be created? I fully understand Parking Lot roads and when they should/should not be used. I am speaking solely about the landmark.
For example, when there is a large mall, why not just blanket that entire area with the Shopping Center landmark? That would allow for a much simpler shape for Waze. I'm asking because I keep running into crazy complex/hideous parking lots that wrap all the way around malls, etc. I really don't feel as if the user needs to know "this is a parking lot," but instead "this is Whatever Mills Mall."
If there is some underlying framework purpose for having parking lots specifically, please link or explain so I can know what course of action I should be taking when I find these.
