I still prefer access=permissive as I often take short cuts by foot
across these private roads without being a customer.

That is access=private and not access=no

access=permissive is the one we need here, access=destination has some
legal aspect.

The other roads would be access=private.

Still be careful with access=* as it might depend on your traffic mode
and foot/bicycle/horse/ski might have different rules.
