If we're normalising speeding around the city at 2.5x speed, can't we just start walking faster instead? Like, with our legs? It's free and no extra equipment required.
(Yes some people have mobility issues. I don't think they're the primary target market.)
Walking is really good for you, too.
But...that takes extra effort, which these shoes purport to not have. I don't understand your question.
Much as people on the internet deem it so, I'm pretty sure people don't want to expend extra effort than necessary walking down the street, nor do they want to arrive sweaty at whatever place they're heading to either.

It goes like this, the foot, the hips
The minor fall, the pedal lift
The Briskly Walking king spoke "Hallelujah"
