Well can't you provide some proof when you do your name thing?

But I looked a little, didn't find anything definitive either way. So I'll stop stating that because Shimano may have needed a new cleat to get them into that emerging market.

But still I hate saying you can't use something on a road bike because it does not say or was not marketed for road. Particularly pedals and shoes.
