I've already been riding fixed for a couple months now without foot retention and I didn't die in some horrible firery crash.
I don't see what the big deal is. I don't live in a hilly area and my bike has a front brake. I'd just like to be able to ride to the store or the bar without having to wear special shoes.
Pedal straps might be a better solution but I hate the way they look.
