OK, I’ll go back and add sidewalk tags.

I have fixed so many connection and crossing errors with footways that are just footpaths alongside a street! If they are properly connected they don’t do anything useful for pedestrian routing (in fact they can even make routes circuitous as you can’t just cross the street), but when they aren’t connected properly routes can be super-circuitous or not connect to the main network at all.

After dealing with hundreds of these I sometimes snap and delete a couple out of frustration. I have vastly improved pedestrian permeability in the SEQ network over the last six months (it’s my primary focus) and stand by that record.
