Amen! Freely-flowing merges and diverges are the bane of my existence, and I am on a campaign to have them traffic-calmed.
Where feasible, I work out alternate routes to bypass these homicidally-designed intersections.
I also generally try to select streets with lower speed limits, but this is not always feasible.
I urge everyone to get involved politically and to complain about dangerous streets and intersections. It is the only way to solve the problem.
