We can have different takes. It's cool.

But I do need to insist on this: no... a fence is actually still really nice to have even without vehicle traffic.

Speaking as a parent and among parents, fenced parks a really nice even in car-free areas. I've been to a lot of playgrounds, many far from roads. Even if the nearby paths are for people and bikes, fences let parents relax and chat and give toddlers more freedom to run without the risk of them wandering too far. They are also a reassurance to people on bikes/scooters/skateboards who are passing by, who get stressed that a toddler might chase a ball or another kid into the path unexpectedly.

If anyone is designing a park, please include a nice little fence (thanks).
