It is an old page because designation and default access is an old
topic and there is no "black and white" answer. In some countries,
when you tag a cycleway, it is obviously not allowed for pedestrians
and contributors do not want to be forced to add a foot=no because in
some other countries it is "obviously" allowed. It's like asking the
whole world to add a bicycle=no with highway=motorway because it is
allowed in some US motorways.
It would be very helpful to see an Australian entry in this page, of course.
