Potential spammyness of the "Are pedestrians allowed to walk on this road without sidewalks" quest

[wolfy1339]

Use case

When a roadway is tagged with sidewalk=no or sidewalk:both=no, the app will show a quest that asks if pedestrians are allowed to use the roadway.

In most cases, pedestrians can use any roadway as long as it's not an expressway or freeway (controlled-access highways).
In all cases where pedestrian traffic is forbidden, which isn't the norm, there would be a sign explicitly stating that prohibition.

When answering yes, the app tags the roadway with foot=yes.

This quest would be rather spammy for areas where there are no sidewalks

Proposed Solution
Being as a pedestrian traffic ban is not the norm, this quest should be disabled

note, not on all of them - see https://github.com/streetcomplete/StreetComplete/blob/3dc1b77ed7d35c0907559207826e528945050e48/app/src/androidMain/kotlin/de/westnordost/streetcomplete/quests/foot/AddProhibitedForPedestrians.kt
