You post that comment (which agrees with you) and don't post mine saying simply to not illegally park.
This sort of thing is not about parking; it's about a city desperate for money preying on motorists.
How is this not about parking? Parking tickets are given to people who park illegally. They are not given to people who park legally. Pretty simple. There is no preying.
One important indication that this is not about parking per se: the city makes more than twice as much every year on parking tickets ($86 million) as they do on parking meters ($40 million).
(SF Transportation Fact Sheet)
Parking management isn't only about revenue, it is about creating turn over and making sure traffic (Muni especially) flows.
