What’s the consensus on cops parking side by side to have conversations?

I’ve been seeing it increasingly more in the past years and obviously more during winter. Cops parking side by side to have a convo at the expense of blocking the street. In the video you can see there’s plenty of room to park properly, but i can only assume they want to do it in the comfort of the heated car. I usually don’t pay much mind, but you can see it was right at the corner of a busy street. What’s the consensus on this?
