Video of a swarm of bicyles in Zhengzhou, China. Imagine parking your bike here and coming out and trying to find it! My husband's theory is you park a bike and when you come out you take the next available bike and then the next time, you leave that bike somewhere and take a better one... no bike belongs to one person. LOL Who knows, but I am glad I don't have to find my bike in that pile!
The Dutch way (we have way more bikes at some places) in front of each shop are no more than 30 bikes, a bike is parked facing to or from the shop, so you have 15 bikes to choose from and you're maybe half a meter away from your bike. So you take your bike and go away. (in Holland you sometimes have lots more to choose from, so it's good to know how yours looks)
