the lack of railings also gives you a way out in case of any large vehicle squishing you against a kerb / railing before it was a barrier / trap
If the railings were longer when that Jag driver drove up onto the footpath to try and run me down I might not be here today.
Of course, if I was allowed to own a personal rocket launcher I would've fixed the problem driver in the first instance.
