If one lane has stopped cars and you are bypassing that line by using an exit lane and then stop in the exit lane to get into the though lane you are decreasing throughput of the road.
The lane we’re talking about disappears, there is no exit.

But you’re right, people who stop or hold up an exit lane so that they can “merge” out of it are failures to the highest degree. Thankfully crowchild southbound memorial no longer does that, but northbound on the other side going off to the university can.
