I came across a place today where there was effectively a "sidewalk" (paved, smooth, wide enough for two-way traffic) about a hundred feet long, connecting two dead-end streets. There was a sign at the end saying "NO Bicycles. NO Skateboards, ..." basically forbidding everything that has wheels.
It occurred to me that there could be two entirely different reasons for using the tag "Bicycle = no"; first, because of the condition of the surface, or its slope, or something else physical, that would just make it impossible to ride a bike on it, or second, that although the surface would be fine for bike riding, it is forbidden by a sign. So the question is, does that one tag "bicycle = no" apply to both of those cases, or is there a proper tag for the way that would make the difference clear?
