Many countries make you use the crossroad or under/overpass if one exists for traffic safety reasons but the effect is the same.

I never said countries don’t have crosswalks. Just that crossing outside of them is either de jure or de facto legal.

Not the case in many countries because of traffic safety. It's safer to cross from a pedestrian crossing or under/overpass. Sentiment isn't the same but the effect is.
