+1 these are different.
Fact is rendered maps get boiled down to simple symbols. If a "[P]"
parking symbol on a map is to have any meaning, it has to be a lot one
could actually park at.
The same goes for toilets: imagine of the map was cluttered with toilet
symbols most of which you could not actually use.
------------------------
Long term vehicle storage is not the same as parking.
Parking lots break down into:
1) Public, free
2) Public, paid
3) Destination only, free
4) Destination only, paid
5) Private
The gray area are nominally "shoppers only" destination parking lots where
nobody enforces the rule.
