In pedestrianised places, you see these people actually walking, or the closest equivalent. I can run across three lanes of traffic in the 40 nanoseconds of pedestrian green I'm given, or stamp on the pedals when cycling so I can make a turn in 25 mph traffic. My dad can't - so the majority of the town, for him, doesn't exist. Those groups are exactly the people most screwed over by car-friendly design, and using them as a reason to push it more is rather poor taste.
