IIRC the M71 was given all sorts of nasty names - Widowmaker, Suicide-pedal etc. so I assume it's a reasonably quirky bit of kit.
They pre-date bolt-on cleats so you'll need to get hold of leather, nylon or timber soled shoes and the cleats are enormous and sufficiently rare that you're not going to want to walk on them.
Other than that I've not doubt they're marvellous!!
If you want to cinelli-up some pedals you can also get those winged-C chromoplastic toestrap pulls.
