You can. You're at it now. Someone else can be thinking of all the other cases while implementing their thing. Sometimes people think "this is obvious, everyone will parse it that way", and then find out that someone just checks oneway tag for non-empty and their oneway=-1 are shown in reverse, and there's nothing you can do about it. You can either make an ambiguous scheme that allows two different interpretations ("you enter roundabout the moment you touch the way" and "you did not enter roundabout and it's just a turn") and have difficulties counting exits. Or you can follow the suggestion, add a small segment and make the data that can be understood in the same way by consumers with different assumptions. It's better to have compatible defaults.
