I agree with you KayPea, 100%. I only play blackjack and it seems as if 80% of the tables have no foot rails. But as I am picky about what game I'll play, I'm pretty much at the mercy of the casino/table. I shift around a lot on my seat, stretch my legs out under the table (sometimes hitting 'something', oops), whatever I can for comfort. Since I'm usually at a table for 2-3 hours (if I'm lucky!), it can get pretty uncomfortable. Plus, I'm always aware of the 'plane seat' phenomena of possible blood clot damage if I don't move around a bit. I really appreciate a blackjack table with foot rails!
