Which is not what is being said. What is being said is that parking
may at any time be considered obstruction, and may therefore not be
assumed to be always legal.

No, it's saying that it is never the case that parking is legal.
Because even parking which does not contravene the local parking
restrictions may be counted as obstruction.
Anyway, the argument has by now become one of pointless semantics, and
it is evident that the core facts are not disputed. I invite you to
have the last word.
