This was my basic understanding as well, which is why I get confused
when I see people talking about marking paths with stuff like
bicycle=designated and foot=designated.  They can't both have right of
way.

Apart from specified bicycle lanes on streets, I can't think of any
paths I'd mark as designated around here, then.  Even on paths marked
and signed as part of regional bicycle routes, bikes must give way to
pedestrians.
