Well, because to most people a "set of lights" covers a whole
intersection. If there are lights northbound, southbound, eastbound
and westbound, that would be one "set of lights" to most people. You
could equally ask, why would you want to render 4 sets of lights when
there is only one?

Heh, you could be right. I think the relation scheme David referred to
would be the way to go.

Often? Apart from left-turning sliplanes, are there other cases?
