the idea that you can design safer traffic patterns isn't a bad idea. the idea that you can come up with some super efficient method to solve traffic in cities is. cities in asia literally were like "if your license plate starts with [x] you can't drive in rush hour on this day of the week". it led to car manufacturers selling more cars so that people could keep driving in rush hour, instead of any semblance of less traffic on the road

... That's not an example of bad road design.
Incrementally making better intersections is still a good idea.
