Funny how this doesn't happen with track riders, who have been using non-releasing shoe-to-pedal attachments of various kinds for donkeys' years.
I can see why Look started in skis, because with two unconnected planks attached to your feet they can head off in opposite directions when you crash, but on a bike, if both feet stay attached to the pedals they will always stay 330-350mm apart and in line with one another.

You make a good point there. During my close encounter with ankle snappage, one of my legs was loose, so my body could twist under its own weight.

But being an experianced 'toppler'. I can say that it hurts your hips when the tyres wash out on snow/ice/water etc., and you dont clip-out.
