It sure does! Look at all the harms caused by unwarranted stop signs in my original post. Removing the vast majority of stop signs removes those harms, and since they couldn’t have solved any problem in the first place, their removal causes no novel, long term harm.

How would yield signs would be better for pedestrians and pedestrian safety?

Perhaps by making it clear to the pedestrian that they should confirm the vehicles are stopping before stepping into the road?

I will never trust a vehicle no matter how much the law and signage is in my favor - I will see it stop before I move.

Seems like the person walking may be waiting a very long time then.
