I haven't noticed this, but your right: The footway is misisng in the garmin map.

But is this not a much bigger problem? Now in the Garmin map two roads are
connected, which are not connected in the OSM data. I think the
remove-short-arcs option mustn't remove complete elements, because the routing
is now broken.
And such a case is not so exceptional: Here it is quite common, that an end of a
road is closed for vehicle traffic or declared as oneway for reducing the
traffic in residential areas.
