Try it myself sometime? That's hilarious. I live in the area. I drive it virtually every day and have for many decades.
I won't quarrel with your argument that there could be better design and functionality - that's obvious (and the local councillor's "improvements" really make me grind my teeth). My comment was really only about your hyperbole. Driving downtown is very far from a "nightmare". I don't recall it ever causing me any real problem or delay.
