In general, they'll be harder to get into and out of than clipless, particularly if they're tight enough to actually offer some of the benefits. Plus you'll need to flip them to get in, and if you don't have your foot in during a technical section and decide to just use the platform side, the cage will probably smack off a rock since it'll be on the underside of the pedal.
