Thank you for this. See update.

Sorry, - except for mini circles - it's very car centered view. Missing all the problems of roundabouts in urban fabric, as letting pedestrians make huge extra walking while crossing from street corner to street corner and how this cityscape feels to pedastrians. Most of tge examples here are foremost clear car space... :(
