No-ones asking to have things both ways. Parking enforcement is required to keep traffic flowing smoothly or otherwise stop people from parking if they're not permitted (pay and display without ticket etc).
Fining people for being a few inches over the line has nothing to do with either.
I like the saying, "rules are for the guidance of wise men and the obedience of idiots". If wardens are too stupid to identify when someones technically illegal parking is deserving of a ticket or not then they shouldn't be allowed out in public let alone be in such a job.
But everyone knows stupid or not, they're only out to rob motorists blind, so they'll give a ticket to anyone they can.
