Most people would see it the other way around I would think. If you are strapped in, especially with a cleated shoe, then you can't get out without reaching down and releasing the straps. But I know, all it takes is one fall. Keep trying and practice on the grass or something. You'll eventually get the hang of it and I'd guess find it easier then clips and straps.
