Please fix this.

They should be regarded unless there is a tag except=bicycle on the
restriction relation.

What you're saying isn't wrong. But it's useless for bicycle routing with the current use of tags and the current quality of the cycleway network. Even in the best-mapped countries most of the roads still miss information about bicycle access permissions, let alone separately mapped cycleways. So the only situation I'd enforce a turn restriction in is when the road is tagged bicycle=lane. Otherwise I'd ignore it.
