It also reduces the number of cars that can turn left especially if there is little oncoming traffic.
Some spots in London do have this design however - like Wharncliffe and Wonderland. It grinds my gears so much more than it probably should when I can't turn left from Wharncliffe to Wonderland when there is nothing oncoming and the light is green yet red for left turns. Windsor is also full of them.

This. I use that intersection almost daily, and I don't get why it is designed like that.
