When I first started using clipless it was finding the foot into the pedal that was the hard bit, I tried some single sided magnesium pedals and to be honest they were great for clearance (& light as buggery

) but when you need to get away quick nothing like as easy as double sided.
For sure when you get a bit more experienced with riding clipless then pulling away with only one side clipped in and one foot perched on the wrong side for a rev or two isn't so much a problem but the last thing you want as a returner(or any other time) is to have your foot slip off in the middle of traffic whence pulling away from the lights etc.
I don't know which Time cleats you use personally but spd type shoes with the recessed cleat are very easy to walk in and there's a massive choice too.
