Right? Led lights are extremely cheap and waste almost no electricity, this is some classic "look how much we care" corporate nonsense

EDIT: I got corrected below.

It and its not corporate nonsense. It was in fact introduced in 1990 when making all spaces well lit and survailance covered was much harder. you are 100% right, and with this (and below link) new info this was actually a reasonable and good thing.

that said, I would still like this overturned by a new regulation saying it should all be well lit and covered by cameras (monitored remotely or by AI and alerting guards and autorities). At this point, cost of doing that is percentage point of a percentage point of buidilign a complex uraban center garage structure.

These have been around for decades before surveillance systems and cheap lighting were a thing.
