No. They are just expensive.

SPD might grind a bit. Bike shoes are not walking shoes but the MTB shoes are better than road shoes for walking!

I think that is what I use as well. The MTB shoes are going to be more convenient off the bike. If I was going to do a lot of walking, I'd probably carry shoes without cleats.
