    So what's the point?
    Any halfway-decent router will take the obvious route.
    Even if a router doesn't do that, it should be clear to someone
    following directions that to turn right they need to take the
    island-separated right-turn lane(s).


What about if the driver misses the first "obvious" turn? Then the
router would recalculate and tell him to turn right where it is forbidden.

Then the driver doesn't turn right, and the router recalculates again.

Here's a better example of the problem: http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/relation/1591319/history North Elk Vale has been split into three ways with four relations on each side of the overpass. And for what? To prevent a router from telling you to turn right in the wrong part of the intersection? Is a GPS even accurate to 100 feet?
