「Caverns」were used as brothels, initially as a「cavern of rotations screwing and filling orifices」to mean the storage of VALUABLE ASSETS, precious items, divine things, treasures, live meat as「vehicles」that can be mounted and sold or rented on a short-term basis in exchange for obscene profit, the TREASURY, NATIONAL BANK. Perhaps a tongue-in-cheek portrayal by the sages of just how profitable the business of providing sexually-oriented services can be as johns rotated in and out continually. Note that in Japanese the sole use of this glyph as an element means 'underpants' as the 'cloths that contain the jewels, precious stones, assets' (褲). Or, a thinly-veiled attempt to call the government a group of clever pimps with bevies of prostitutes as assets (actually, the lords who ruled did in fact have bevies of prostitutes as assets).
　A「cavernous」building where「carts, vehicles」and/or the goods transported on such carts are stored. An ARMORY, the place where military vehicles and war materiel were placed in STORAGE. Note that the first large use of vehicles for a single purpose was to transport an army, and a fief lord needed WAREHOUSES and GARAGES to hold such vehicles when not in use. Further note that when not in use, these vehicles generated no profit (no risk, no reward) for the TREASURY, NATIONAL BANK and one source of a fief lord's treasure, makes going off to war good for business and profits.
　Elements as「emphasis on one's own hand」or「palming control of erection」as the「vehicle for screwing and filling orifices」further underscores where true value can be found and treasure is stored per the sages: GRANARY, MANY SEEDS IN ONE PLACE.

Modern definitions (that generally disregard history) …excluding politically incorrect concepts and other meanings deemed offensive today; may list only pigeonholed definitions, euphemisms, or meaningless mnemonics)
Chinese: warehouse; storehouse
Japanese: warehouse, storehouse, cellar, magazine, granary, godown, depository, treasury, elevator
Unihan extended: armory, treasury, storehouse
EDRDG: warehouse; storehouse

Always keep in mind that these glyphs were originally created by groups of clever old men as vulgar riddles and analogies for their own entertainment (see 籒 for that) and represented Chinese society many thousands of years ago, and not as a written or spoken language. If these glyphs had been intended for language use, the sages could not have possibly designed a worse system. Is it truly possible that all these glyphs started out as off-color jokes and puzzles? Yes! It is! Sex had no shame in ancient China. Why would it? And now, there is a cover-up. No one is suggesting these glyphs depict contemporary life in China, Japan, or anywhere else. This site describes glyph meanings, not people. These glyphs however, describe many and various things, including people, long before there were any notions of becoming politically incorrect. The question to be answered is, should these glyphs continue being used, by anyone, anywhere, for expressing language? (More...) Despite how bad the human world is today, do you actually believe that the so-called good old days were any better? Or they could only have been worse?

By the way, with a limited number of the same elements used by the sages again and again to form these glyphs, you should expect to find the same explanations again and again, as tedious as that may become, and as an inherent trait of any dictionary. This site explains the dual meanings of glyphs most often ignored by other sources that provide you with only the sanctioned definition, generally.
