My summary of reasons for why I dislike clipless pedals follows:

Peace!
I think that both sides will need to agree to disagree on this one, some people prefer clipless, some people prefer clips/straps, and some people prefer neither.

My brother-in-law swears by clipless, I still think clips work just fine, if it worked perfectly in 1978, i should work just as well today, some technologies need to be updated (I wouldn't want to type this on a Commodore Pet for example ), some technologies really don't. Then again, I really wish I still had my 1978 Sekine 10 speed, man that bike was a dream.......

For you, with your leg problems use the platforms, the thing is, to just get out there, and ride.....
