I propose a compromise: Parking is free, but there's a discount if you don't need car storage space.
how is this different?
Because then the price to stay isn't falsely advertised.
Reframing is helpful.
this is literally the same thing
Exactly. "Free parking" is a fucking ridiculous concept. It's just making others pay for it.
Are you unfamiliar with what "reframing" means?
Touché, I see what you mean now.
Psychologically different, humans are loss averse, being charged for something they feel is normal behavior leads to them acting out. Not winning a discount because it's not worth it is easier to accept. Same bottom line, different behavior outcomes
