Haha, parallel processing? More like parallel parking, am I right? But seriously, this is the right approach.

I feel like I might have seen a question like this before, and the answer was to use sequential actions instead. But in this case, I think parallel makes sense.

This reminds me of a practice question where we had to optimize flow performance. I chose parallel branches then too, but I wonder if there's a better way.
