I once heard “to keep your tailgate from being stolen” but that seems like it’d be a rare case.

And if it takes just as much time to back in as it does to back out, I get why some people would rather spend that time before going in than after coming out. There is backing up involved in parking in a parking lot one way or the other, and if you've somehow only ever gotten stuck behind people who are backing in and not people who are backing out then I'd call that extraordinarily lucky, not evidence of the efficiency of backing out instead.

But yeah there are shit drivers everywhere, even ones who don't back in.
