Good to hear a lot of different viewpoints, many of which had valid points. I am not in favor of regulations or rules, that makes hiking more like the daily world we all strive to escape temporarily. There are conditions when snowshoes are not the best choice - when this happens you should take them off. I think the problem is many people push the envelope, saying smugly to themselves "These conditions are OK to bareboot," when they really aren't. It is a free country; do as you wish. I wish for days after a big storm, when we can break trail all day and have a blast --- and our own trail!
