Sorry for the premature derail. He started it.
The bikes have brakes though, right?
If I'm reading your OP properly it doesn't seem too bad to me. I rode fixed (with two brakes) for a month or so without any foot retention because I liked the way it felt, and because I could slow down quite effectively (though not skid).
