I don't get these unclipping in preparation for stopping comments. It isn't like clipping out takes any time. At a light I am usually stopped and then clip out and put a foot down if the light doesn't change. Even someone as clumsy as me can balance for a few seconds

Ditto for the folks who say that they unclip in slippery conditions or dicey spots. That is exactly when I want to be sure to be clipped in.

When riding I am clipped in, the foot usually only comes out a millisecond before I put it down to stop.
