I have been using clipless pedals for a long time. And before clipless pedals became popular, I was on clips.
When I had a chance to ride using platform pedals (when I bought a new bike), I found myself having a hard time keeping my feet on the pedals (especially my right foot). I may have gotten so used to pulling on the up-stroke. I end up being so conscious of the position of my foot that I adjust my foot's position on the pedals often.
And because of these difficulties, it's hard to spin faster.
On the trail, my foot fell once and ended up with pedal scar.. ouch..
