Hi
Nothing except the fact people walk along a way is implied by path or
footway. The legality or ability to use it is defined with sub/adjective
tags, such as width.
The path tag is actively being discouraged.

OSM-Carto rendering doesn't distinguish it from 'footway' any longer.

Both footway and path infer a way of a certain width suitable for people to
use, neither infers any legal right of use as far as I am concerned.
If starting over path is a better word as people outside of OSM have clue what
it is but otherwise I see them as interchangeable.
