In a one way traffic system, if you pull through, you will be facing on-coming traffic.
In two way traffic, you simply pull out and into the correct flow of traffic.
In any case, what's so difficult about reversing out of a space?

I already indicated that I never attempt to park face out in a diagonal parking situation. Only in perpendicular lots, where it actually makes sense:
My honest belief: People do not pull-through because they think they're not supposed to. The "invisible wall" mentality if you will. A driver may be the first and only car to arrive in that lot above, and will stop when their nose reaches the space in front of them. Not because they're not thinking clearly, but because they think it's wrong to.
Y'see drunkenmonkey,
morality controls our ways here in the good ole USA,
not logic! (sheesh, how ever did we get to the Moon??)
