So in plan D the space between the workshop and the neighbor is dead space, which apart from being a junk corner, maybe could be used for parking bicycles (if there will be any), cannot be used properly.
Everything seems pretty fragmented like that.
If you look at it that way, you are of course right.
However, I wrote in #40 what I had in mind.
I have learned that you divide rooms into areas. This also applies to the garden. A compost area or a place to park a wheelbarrow or old pots is absolutely necessary!
Better a somewhat wider driveway than a narrow one. A courtyard for playing, a place for sunbathing, a corner for the sundowner, a large shady table for family meals, a spot under trees for dreaming, the beets and tomatoes also get their sunny place and not to forget the trampoline, which you want to keep an eye on but not have as the main decorative object in the garden. THAT would be a garden.
Hedges, trees and shrubs serve for zoning, which are not only planted at the property boundary but support the areas. THAT would then be a family garden.
Whether the OP does it that way is another question.
But this one is a hobby carpenter, who also appreciates an outdoor saw place or where firewood is chopped and can just be left lying around.
Unfortunately, the long narrow driveway, which actually only serves the car, has displaced the beautiful "courtyard for everyone."
In a living room you also don’t just line up all the elements (furniture//vs. garden features), but create groups (TV area, reading corner, dining area, writing tasks, hobbies and food preparation). You furnish.
Each area gets its furniture, its table and lighting and storage space for the activity.
What used to be all in one room is now even separated into individual rooms. (The loft was only a phase).
And you have more in front of the property, a more contiguous garden.
There you would have one contiguous area to the south (you certainly mean a continuous lawn area), but that is less garden than a simple lawn area (which by the way is the most work in a garden in comparison). You basically favor exactly what is not that great.
