Hi,

I prefer asuming that a gate is closed (I tag them with access=private
in these cases anyway) or you have to indicate allowed traffic
(foot=yes, bicycle=yes, etc.)). Why do we have to have a default?

The default should be applied by the software evaluating the data. The default is not an "OpenStreetMap default" but an "application default". A conservative routing engine might assume an unspecified gate to always be closed, while others might simply apply a slight penalty for a route containing a gate, or even assume it is alway open.
