False Economies
Sometimes the cheapest option isn't the right one. I fondly remember my neighbours going to a well-known catalogue-based store and buying the cheapest lawnmower they stocked. How we laughed as they realised it had non-rotating wheels and died when presented with grass. Tell us about times you or others have been let down by being a cheapskate.

A car park is a container of car parking spaces.
A car parking space is a container of cars.
This is a system of nested containers. The occupancy of the inner containers is not in any way related to the occupancy of the outer container.
Therefore, you can have a car park, which is empty (no spaces drawn out on the ground) or full (all usable space taken up by spaces, or the access paths). Whether there are any cars there is irrelevant.
