For routing purposes "you may not pass at all" and "you must dismount"
are very close, closer than most non-cyclists would expect.

I am cycling a lot, also in places with bizarre rules and at times with poor cycling infrastructure
and only in extreme cases it makes sense to take route that requires dismounting anywhere.

Also, I use http://brouter.de/brouter-web/#map=15/50.0670/19.9445/standard
as a primary router that was mentioned to allow route through also bicycle=no.

And routing results are obnoxiously hard to debug properly, I run multiple times
into quite stupid results and tracked down root case only where it was clearly 
OSM data problem (car routing leaving motorway because there was gap in it etc)
