These two suggestions made me laugh a bit: everybody is not super accurate in drawing polygons, imagery has a resolution and I doubt a lot of mappers go trough a complete parking lot a measuring tape in their hands. 
On the contrary, estimating a width from one's car when you happen to really need to know is probably not far-fetched. 
I'd say yes to such a tag.
