There are some people who believe you do not yield AT ALL. That is incorrect. A vehicle in a left lane needs to cross over the right lane to exit. If it needs to cross your path, You allow that vehicle to do so.
If done correctly, it only takes a few seconds which would be continuous flow. If done incorrectly, the vehicle in the left lane has to drive around the circle AGAIN to exit. Or, two vehicles slam on their brakes because an entering driver did not YIELD. Which is not continuous flow.

Thanks for the clarification, you now make sense. I was hoping that everyone knows NOT TO ENTER until the RB is clear, so the entering vehicle has to yield and therefore the flow is not continuous. I love semantics. But is is closer to continuous than a 2 minute traffic light
