Genius at work creating stupidity?

Scientists at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology have devised just such a vehicle, a futuristic "City Car" that could even drive itself.

Once at your destination, the vehicle's computers would, at the press of a button, look for a parking spot behind others like itself, then fold roughly in half so you could stack it there as you would a shopping cart.

Sounds like a complete waste of time unless they've also figured out a good way to get your "cart" out of the middle of a long stack.
