I had thought about the barrier, as for parking next to other cars, I'm sure if it were a guy it would be programmed to park at the furthest darkest corner of the car park away from everything else

Considering they have all that computing power available, why does it over-correct the steering while reversing? Surely that is easily calculated to make it a single movement.
Also, they are not friendly with the tyres, adding lock while stationary.....

Maybe they thought that a proper computer-controlled manouevre would look implausibly smooth? It should of course....
