I certainly had plenty of drivers casually and negligently drive through crosswalks occupied by pedestrians (done it myself too when I shouldn’t have)

Or did you mean the “eye contact yields right of way to the vehicle” bit?

I mean the "eye contact yields right of way to the vehicle". In my experience as a pedestrian any time I make eye contact with a vehicle they wave me through, even if my intention was to let them go first.
