The right tool for the job - on my commuter I use cage pedals and street shoes; on my mountain bike I use mountain shoes and Time clipless pedals; on my road bike I use Sidis and Look clipless. Each has their own advantages and disadvantages.
If I could walk comfortably in my Sidis with Look cleats I would wear them for all riding as they are by far the most comfortable and efficient pedal system I have tried for riding.
And for the record, my knee pain STOPPED when I started using the Look pedals. They have plenty of float and they allow me to position my feet correctly and then adjust slightly as needed.
