Picky! Picky! Picky!
I have my own method for removing snow from the driveway and sidewalks. We do have snow blower, but I do not have enough upper-arm strength to pull that darn cord!
I can handle a snow shovel pretty well, but that takes too long.
I use the big-push-broom method. I just place the end of the broom handle against my abdominal area, grab the broom handle with both hands, and push that snow right off of the driveway and sidewalks. I end up with a nice, little pile of snow at the end of each long push, and I just "broom it" over to the side.
The big-push-broom method of mine works well with heavy snow too. I just go out periodically during the snowfall and push the fallen snow where it needs to be. It takes me 8-minutes to do the entire driveway and the sidewalk this way.
The incredibly thin layer of snow that remains after a broom push should not be on the sidewalks and the driveway according to my husband. Picky! Picky! Picky!
So, he is out there right now with the snow blower, and I am inside drinking coffee and spending some time on Persona Paper. Silly man!

Some people are just too picky for their own good
Oh well, best to let them do it their way "right" the first time and avoid arguments

I like the idea of a broom. I also love snow blowers. I wish I had a small one that I could handle on my own because I would enjoy myself out there!

What a great idea, I have a push broom and could do that, because using a shovel kills my back, but I tihnk your method might just work, as long as I don't allow the snow to pile up .

I am generally quite quick at snow clearance with a shovel
