To me, it seems objectively easier to pull into a parking space forward and then back out of the space when you are ready to leave. You don’t have to line up with the lines while driving backwards, and it’s easier to keep from hitting other cars as well. So why back in? To me, the only advantage I can think of is that you can get out quicker, technically.

Edit: I do not need driving instruction, just wondered why. The reasoning.

    My mirrors automatically adjust downward when I reverse, I don’t have them set that way normally.

      Oh, that’s cool! But one should still cover the blind spots with side mirrors instead of seeing what’s behind you, as you already have one that does this!

        What? Who said I used my side mirrors to see behind me?
