Local cultural assumptions are in play here!

In my (suburban) township, few residential roads have sidewalks, so
the ones without sidewalks are hardly in the minority. People walk on
the ones without sidewalks all the time - about half my daily walk to
and from work is on sidewalk-less roads (and the other half is on a
shared cycleway).

But I think we're in "violent agreement" that the default of foot=yes
for highway=residential is sensible, and that tagging something that's
the default already is nearly worthless.
