I am not a traffic engineer but It appears that if you are exiting Chitty Chatty and want to head south, that you will not be able to make a left turn. Instead, you will have to make a right turn and then will have to make a U turn.
For the directional median opening alternative, left-turn egress vehicles from Chitty Chatty Run would be required to make a right-turn egress and use the median opening on Morse Boulevard at Fire Station 47 to make a U-turn to travel south.
The price for a roundabout is $3,001,000 and the price for the directional median opening is "only" $196,000.

It's what we call a "Michigan Left". Lots of divided highways throughout the state have the same flow.
