I thought ground taxi was done with rudders, not toe brakes?

The tail wheel is a conversion that removes the drag of a fixed nose wheel.
Some prefer it for small fields.
The problem with connecting it to the rudder:

The runway there is aligned with an adjacent railroad track, not with the
prevailing winds.
