Because sometimes my right hand is busy, e.g. starting from a stop
on a steep San Francisco hill.   It's not that I couldn't control
throttle and brake with one hand, it just easier if I use my foot
in that situation.   Ditto when I want to stretch at a stop light
on a steep hill.

Don't they have steep hills in NC :-)
