Don't disagree, we're still learning, but looking at ways to reduce the chance of clipping pedals more these days.

My experience is actually that fietsstraats have very few features other than red asphalt and continuous sidewalks on side streets, maybe a slightly raised median. P2 will include raised crossings on side streets, improved crossings at major streets, one new modal filter where volumes were higher.
