Some of them like https://www.openstreetmap.org/relation/13031072 where the no-u-turn restriction is on the same way don't make sense, and it's fair to ask for further information about why it was added, and if that's not provided then I think it's fine to remove.
I admit that while I'd much prefer routers to fix their problems I've been given so much bad routing due to u-turns at intersections that I've been mapping some. I think microsoft mapped a lot, so it's common in the database. I think at this point we might as well make an exception and allow these traffic light no-u-turns to be mapped. In the roundabout case, that's why I dislike splitting the way into two oneway. It would be better to have a single way and just tag it as a traffic island or hard/soft median on that section or something. Nonetheless some mappers do it this way and in that case, the no-u-turn restriction is probably required.
