I hadn’t thought of the analogy, but that’s the kind of thing I was getting at, and the way I think GO platforms work too. Except for the R&T park and part of the sidewalk aspect — those areas aren’t just platforms, they are also paths/sidewalks, completely independent of their function as platforms. It’s not obvious to me what a parking analogy to that would be — some space that was both a parking space and a turn lane? But that doesn’t work as a concept.
Pulling into a parking space to make a three-point turn? Same as with a sidewalk, you are essentially staying mobile and not staying in the space.
The simplest analogy is simply a vehicle lane that also permits parking.
