This community has a lot of posts about the means of mobility, so I was reminded of this article about how bike racks have changed over the decades, at least ones that show up in the USA.
More micromobility options means racks will have to evolve to meet new needs, like accommodating cargo ebikes and the like. I post this so that everyone knows that better bike racks do exist, as many destinations have the older, terrible styles that were barely usable. Where you can, advocate for better bike racks and everyone will benefit!
A different poster referred to those as the Sheffield rack. In California, we do see those occasionally, but they suffer from a similar issue from my earlier comment. The design certainly allows for more compatibility with various bike designs, but I would add some sort of painted marking on the ground to encourage slightly-angled parking.
After all, if one bike with wide panniers is parked parallel with the Sheffield rack, it may deny a second bike from parking on the other side. If the first bike were locked to the vertical post but angled away from the rack, the second bike can do the same, allowing two to park anti-parallel.
