Fair point actually because you do have to take extra time to see if the indicators on.
However on the other hand, they might jump the gun and assume you are indicating, and like in the roundabout situation above, they might think you are exiting the roundabout and then pull out in front of you

It could be that they are separate lights, but with a quick glance, you only see the amber light and assume....... |
The amber marker lights are located on the bumper sides, low down and are dimmer than indis - so they're fairly easy to distinguish. I was taught never to base a driving judgement on people's indicators anyway, as too many people don't use them properly, so I never assume anything base on the lights I see. What does gripe me is those cars like Golfs where the indicators are built into the headlamp cluster inboard of the headlamps themselves - at night they're nigh-on impossible to distinguish from the headlamps.
