I do realize that.  But if we have rail and we have pedestrians, what should we have?  A raised monorail so there is zero pedestrian and cyclist impact?  Is it really worthwhile?  Or all rail needs to be underground so it does not cast a shadow on any passerby on foot?  Seriously?

Weber Street has an underpass, and I personally think it's quite OK as a pedestrian.  In the winter, I prefer it to the Margaret St bridge, too, given that it'll be sheltered from the winds.
