I was somewhat anti platform pedals in the beginning, but since mountain biking, I started falling in love with them. The pins help your foot stay in contact with the pedal on the upstroke and it's just so nice to jump on your bike and not have to worry about what shoes you have on.
I totally get it tho, they look out of place on a lot of bikes, and they look odd on my old cannondale too, but when I ride the beater bikes, their intention isn't really to go fast or anything, just have fun.
