My point is that it would take a wildly disproportionate amount of work that other things (public transportation, bike infrastructure) are almost infinitely easier to do.
Not necessarily. The easiest thing to do is remove or severely limit parking minimum laws, like Washington state's recently passed SB 5184. No infrastructure to build nor required enforcement. This one step removes parking's negative externality, it didn't cost a single dollar, and it can go into effect immediately. Building good public infrastructure is important, but it's not the only thing we can do.
Oh I also agree but I was referring to the parking space registration specifically in my original comment.
