"That's obvious, and the nub of the problem regarding the rest of your comments."
Now, now, no need to be rude.
"No error. Turn right at the intersection, going clockwise around the roundabout. (I even said traffic goes clockwise ... not that I had to ... or that any sane person would think otherwise)."
This is what you previously wrote;
"left lane to turn left, right lane to turn right and either lane to go straight ahead..."
All vehicles enter and exit a roundabout on the left, there are no right turns. Repeat after me, NO RIGHT TURNS.
The rest of your explanation cannot be correct.
"What the? I was expanding on an opinion."
Ok, my bad, I should have said your opinion is incorrect.
"What the? I'm (obviously!) referring to changing lanes without exiting"
This is what you wrote;
"Edit: I forgot the most important rule for making roundabouts work: never change lanes in a roundabout."
Nothing (obviously!) there regarding exiting a roundabout.
"For example, someone enters in left lane, changes to right (inner) lane in order to turn right (at intersection) i.e. to take 3rd exit. I've seen the reverse as well. It's a dangerous practice and one that I recall my driving instructor being abundently clear about all those years ago. I added it merely to be more complete, entirely for my own satisfaction. And why the hell am I wasting my time explaining this to you?"
Well, you're not explaining anything, really. You've inserted entirely pointless drivel that has nothing to do with what you or I said said previously. And in consideration of your feelings, I'll treat that as a rhetorical question.
Anyway, my final point;
If a vehicle entering the roundabout from the left lane was compelled to leave the roundabout at the first exit
"I didn't say that."
No, I did. Try and keep up. I used this as an example of why your original post was incorrect.
"..........and the point I was making was that those type of roundabouts were easier to understand under the old explanations/rules"
But obviously not by you.
"Welcome to IceInSpace, you're going to fit right in!"
I doubt it. I can't even imagine being as rude, insulting and defensive as you.
"Note for everyone else: Yeah, I know, I obviously need a coffee break."
No, you need a Bex, a cup of tea and a good lie down.
With kind regards
Herb
