While safety is in fact a primary concern for traffic engineers, "orderly movement of traffic" is another.... And aside from circumventing some issue between the exit ramp and the following entrance ramp, there really is no need for anyone to get off the freeway only to immediately get back on.
Having driven millions of miles throughout the NA continent, I disagree. I have jumped off more than once, to view the services available and decide to continue on to another exit. This does not change OP's situation where proceeding straight was illegal.
