Wow, earlier today I read it as “Why can’t this be normal” as in why are people regimented to stay on sidewalks instead of strolling across the grass? It reminded me of a guy I worked with in one of my first jobs, who was told by another coworker that you shouldn’t walk on the grass, and he replied, “Yeah you should, because if you weren’t supposed to it wouldn’t feel so soft and cushy and good on your feet.” I liked that guy’s attitude.

If I remember right, there’s a school that took the worn paths in the grass and just turned those into official walkways.
Yes, that’s a fairly common practice.
