Because the permit hinges on getting the approval of the neighbors.If the book club gets noisy they can complain about the noise. If they block the traffic the police can make them move the cars. If they park illegally the cars can be towed. All legal solutions to the problems you site.
Tell me something, how will a permit solve any of the problems you keep talking about?
Busy streets are disturbing in quiet neighborhoods even if all other factors are solved.
You keep making things up. First you argued that it was traffic and parking issues, which made no sense at all because nobody in a car got a ticket. Then you argued that it was an illegal business, even though no one is making money, now you are saying they need their neighbors permission to get a permit.
Lets get wildly hypothetical here and say that everyone that goes to these Bible studies parks at a near by parking lot and walks to the house. they do this in small groups, and are very quiet and inconspicuous. They do this because they actually care about the neighborhood, and do not want to upset the neighbors. That eliminates the parking and traffic problems entirely, but they, under the unconstitutional law, need a permit. Explain to me why, if they do everything I outlined above, they need a permit, or anyone's permission to do anything.
For a permit that impacts the neighbors ....it goes through an approval process where the neighbors are allowed to have a say in letting the city give or refuse said permit.
If you want to put a second story on your house.... you need to have the approval of the neighbors...right along with the city approval.
For me... the cars it would being in parking up my block would be an issue. I would fight their permit tooth and nail. I really don't care of the cars are parked legally or not..... the congestion on a regular basis would be the issue.
