At 5'4" I just adjust to one foot or some toes

I'm a bit taller, but have been doing that with many of my bikes, including my Glide, for over 40 years! As for 'footing' from the saddle, that is very unwise and fraught with risk! Get off the darned thing and wheel it backwards from beside it - far safer.

Platform shoes could cause sudden fears, like fire, or villagers with pitchforks.

I am also 5'6" and I always buy boots with tall soles. Really makes a huge difference. I have jumped on my bike in the past and immediately noticed I had my shoes on instead of my boots lol.
