All of you people who don't think tension is an issue are forgetting that people are different. Women, children, and other people (weak knees, previous injuries, movement issues, etc.) sometimes find it difficult to clip out. I remember my mom's first clipless moment was a good 5-10 seconds of shouting "I CAN'T GET MY FOOT OUT!" before she ran out of room and succumbed to her fate.
