WHat is the definition of a highway?
In the UK you can walk on any road except a Motorway. Non of this is signed.
In the UK there are many places to get somewhere you have to walk on a road (even A roads) that does not have a pavement (US sidewalk)

What OP was (probably) doing was tagging roads that aren't motorways and that have no sign banning pedestrians with `foot=no`, which is only supposed to be used in situations where walking is illegal or impossible. Eventually more experienced mappers noticed what OP was doing and reverted a bunch of his edits, which isn't a great feeling, particularly if you've been mapping that way for a while before anyone noticed
(If OP was using StreetComplete I'd blame StreetComplete for this more than the OP. They used to have a quest for pedestrian walkability that was poorly worded, which they've since removed because it was leading to exactly this kind of confusion.)
Your explanation of why edits were reverted makes sense
