Is flat footing overrated?

[BonnyJonny13]

Ive only ever ridden tall bikes and im 6'2 so can still flatfoot and being able to put both feet down sturdily/stand up every now and then seems like a necessity to me now.

Only the folks that can flat-foot their bikes usually say it's over-rated. :lol: I've seen countless folks drop their bikes at intersections/parking lots because of poor footing.
